John Paul II comments on Chiapas, Cuba

MEXICO CITY -- (AP) -- Pope John Paul II touched two prominent issues
Friday in a talk with journalists -- the leftist rebellion in the Mexico's
southern state of Chiapas and the results of his visit to Cuba last year.

``There will be no solution [in Chiapas] without recognition that the
indigenous people were the first owners of the land,'' the Pope told
reporters aboard his plane en route from Rome to Mexico City. He also
stressed the need for dialogue and cautioned against transforming Marxist
liberation theology into ``indigenous theology.''

Speaking about one of the most watched of all his foreign pilgrimages, the
Pope said he was ``relatively pleased'' with progress since he visited Cuba
a year ago, and pointed to the restoration of Christmas as an official
holiday on the communist island. He noted that he was invited to make a
stop there on this trip, but said the schedule had already been arranged.
