ZAPATISTAS HAVE ARRIVED! After months of preparations the historical moment arrived! Zapatista delegation as part of their Journey for life (European chapter) arrived in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Zapatista equipos were welcomed by the regional Coordination for Zapatista meeting in Slovenia (part of the Balkan route). Local anti-authoritarian movement gathered with its flags and banners in autonomous cultural center Metelkova where Zapatistas arrived shortly after 7 p.m. They were greeted by a gang of militants with flares and loud chanting. With the first words exchaged between us strong feelings of dignity and compañerismo emerged.
