FRANCE: MEXICAN PRESIDENT ERNESTO ZEDILLO ENDS OFFICIAL VISIT

(7 Oct 1997) Natural Sound Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo closed his official visit to France with a meeting with French Prime Minister Lionel Jospin on Tuesday. He also spoke to French businessmen, ending a four-day state visit during which he sought closer European trading ties but sidestepped questions on human rights. The meeting with French Premier Lionel Jospin rounded off Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo's official trip to France. It was a visit intended to forge closer economic links between the two countries. In a speech to the French National Council of Business Leaders, Zedillo sought new French investment in Mexico. On Monday he met President Jacques Chirac. They pledged to fight drug trafficking and money laundering, and signed agreements to boost trade. But Zedillo scheduled no news conferences during a visit in which he faced criticism over alleged human rights abuses in his country. Concern over Mexico's human rights situation has risen after attacks on five Mexican journalists in the past two months and the Sept. 8 killing of three men from a Mexico City slum, last seen in police custody. The French politicians also avoided making comments on Mexico's human rights record. Zedillo has now left for Bonn for meetings with Germany's leaders.
