In view of the upcoming marches called by the national government this May 1, which also commemorates International Labor Day, the senator of the Democratic Center Paloma Valencia expressed objections against President Gustavo Petro.
As published on his ”.
“They say that power transforms people, that few rulers are capable of having it without becoming an alien being, convinced that they are outstanding, incapable of recognizing their flaws. Mired in delusions of his greatness, he is encouraged by a close circle that provides him with the security that only the queen’s mirror in Snow White would be able to give: you are the most beautiful and the best,” he noted.
The senator even had no comments for Laura Sarabia, current director of Dapre and who has become the president’s right-hand man, despite the scandals she was involved in when some audios were revealed with the current Colombian ambassador to the FAO, in which would have discussed the allegedly illegal entry of money for the campaign of the then presidential candidate.
“Petro seems to have acquired the disease in one of the most critical degrees. He is mad with vanity. And Laura Sarabia, as they say, has become the mirror that shows her an image the size of her ego.”
The opposition congresswoman also expressed her annoyance at the president’s frequent messages to those who criticize his management. According to her, the president’s vanity would not be letting Petro see the discontent of Colombians, and he prefers to attribute the objections to organized attacks against him.
“He responds with poems of no literary or intellectual value, but grandiose, full of clever phrases with which he consecrates himself as the leader of the Colombian people. But not everyone, because in his delirium he considers that Colombians who do not conform to his vision of the country are not part of the people, but rather are enemies that must be defeated. Those Colombians, we, who criticize him, are full of bad feelings, bad intentions, perverse powers. And he, Petro, is called to fight us,” he reproached.
At another point in her column, the senator referred to the marches that the Executive intends to call this May 1, calling the initiative an abuse towards Colombians, since the president would be taking advantage of the traditional and massive outing of the protesters to make them pass off as government sympathizers.
“The massive opposition marches were not properly recorded or measured by anyone, they were reduced by the president who chose to say that there were 250,000 of us throughout the country. The topic would be an anecdote of a ruler in denial; But it is more than that. He wants to start something like a marching war. The May 1st marches, which are traditionally massive throughout the country, were abused. A state effort will be added to them, contractors and officials will leave so as not to lose their positions, they will bring CRIC communities full of resources and one or another Petrist,” he indicated.
Valencia also dedicated a few words to the polarization that the country is experiencing due to the reforms that the national government is trying to pass to place greater responsibility on pensions, health and even energy generation, which would leave the private sector in deep uncertainty. future in the country.
“The statist project – which has already failed in Colombia as in many Latin American countries – seems to be coming in full force. They have the slogan that there be no private sector in health, nor in pensions, nor in energy generation, nor in public services, nor in public works. They are accused of the sin of making profits, having a profit motive. This statist model is the prelude to a lot of poverty, inefficiency and, above all, state superpowers. An ultra-powerful state the size of its ruler’s ego. Very hard times are coming,” he concluded. With Infobae
