“right? [drug] If they legalize cocaine around the world, business could easily be dismantled. It sells like wine. This money is used to prevent children from starting to wine, alcohol and smoking like they do today,” Peter said. “In Colombia, we're more or less successful. We're currently taking the initiative because vapers worse than cigarettes are legal.”
“And cocaine is illegal because it makes it in Latin America. Not because it's worse than whiskey. That's what scientists analyze. Cocaine is not worse than whiskey,” Peter argued, and he Failed to cite scientific evidence for the claim.
“And what the US got, it's fentanyl, it's killing them. And it's not made in Colombia. But it's there and there's no major policy for it. [sic]He continued. “So they're going to Mexico with fentanyl, and then fentanyl came out as a drug for pharmacies in multinationals in North America and began delivering it to do business.”
The far left president of Colombia held a nearly six-hour government meeting at the Presidential Palace of Casa de Narigno. The first two hours of the meeting were broadcast as mandatory on national television, following Peter's instructions. It is reportedly He said he got the idea from the Cuban communist regime. The entire meeting was streamed online through social media.
The live government meeting was an unprecedented event in Colombian politics. Such displays are common in the communist and socialist world, but echo Venezuela's socialist regime was a socialist regime that allowed government meetings to be held on a daily basis.
The conference presented by Peter as a “movement of transparency” was Some Public broadcasts of unhinged remarks issued by Peter and complaints by some members of his administration, some of which publicly criticized and questioned their peers.
Petro Recognised His four-year administration, launched in August 2022, has failed to meet more than 75% of the campaign promises so far. Peter spent more than an hour on the Minister with the lack of results and unfinished projects, particularly the Ministry of Housing and Defense. Peter too belated His education minister arrived late.
“This is a report of non-compliance, fatal, and I'm embarrassed to say it to people. Of the 195 commitments, 146 are not met. The president is a revolutionary, and the government is not Not,” Peter said.
Petro once again rampages against President Donald Trump over deporting Colombian immigrants from the US after he caused a short life Diplomatic crisis Between both countries. Peter questioned the use of handcuffs and other detention in US deportation flights.
“The first thing is that Latin America has arrived and discuss tariffs. No, on the contrary. I think Trump will kneel for the goods, he says we are like him. I think so,” Petro said. I said.
“We're not, we're not him. We can understand each other, yes, I'm not saying no, he has to understand the difference.” He continued. “First they arrive without handcuffs, then we talk about business. Not the other way around.”
Peter once again criticised the deportation of immigrants, but recently appointed Foreign Minister Laura Saravia said officials from the Colombian Social Prosperity Agency were not present at the arrival of deportation flights that arrived from Panama over the weekend. I've said that. He suspends Saravia and accuses her of a “lie.”
“Please, the president is talking,” Peter intervened.
With Vice President Francia Marquez Some The Colombian minister aired further complaints and expressed distrust towards Saravia and Armando Benedetti. Appointment He served as his new chief of staff on Tuesday by Peter.

In 2023, Malerbie Meza, a Colombian woman who served as Saravian nanny after Benedetti fired her, said that the Foreign Minister forced her to “have been tested for polygraphs for illegal wiretapping and abuse of power.” I criticized him.Nanny Gate” – arose after Saravia accused Meza of allegedly stealing a briefcase containing $7,000 in cash. The scandal led to Saravia and Benedetti leaving the Colombian government.
Environment Minister Susanna Muhammad has appointed Benedetti with the designation. I said“As a feminist and as a woman, I cannot sit at this table of progressive projects with Armando Benedetti.”
Peter replied to Muhammad, saying that Benedetti should be given a second chance.
“Men are not intended to destroy women. If we are before life, we are enthusiasts of what life produces, having sex first and having love at the end.” Petro I said.
