President Petro called for tomorrow in the main cities of the country, demonstrations to support the reforms that are being processed in Congress.
Tomorrow, in various regions of Colombia, they are preparing for a series of marches called by the Central Obreras, the Educators Union, the Colombian Federation of Educators (Fecode) and other union, student and political organizations. These peaceful mobilizations aim to support the reforms proposed by the government of President Gustavo Petro.
The call for these marches arose after a call made by the president himself, who urged the workers to take to the streets and express their support for the reforms that are under discussion in the Congress of the Republic.
“This time I will not be on the balcony, I will march alongside the working people and I hope that those who voted to make a change in Colombia will now accompany me in all the municipalities of the country.” Peter said.
