In recent weeks, relations between Gustavo Petro and Nayib Bukele, respectively presidents of Colombia and El Salvador, have been going through moments of high tension, since the policies that the presidents pursue in each of the countries are completely opposite. In the Central American country, the presence of the deputy Alexia Rivas stands out, who again lambasted and quoted Petro, questioning him on his idea of government.
Rivas’ criticism concerns the situation of the miners’ strike, which is taking place in Antioquia and Córdoba, after the president assured that several young people who had cremated an ambulance had continued this action due to the lack of study possibilities, in particular , The National President maintained that this situation had an impact on the lives of the relatives of these authors.
“These young people have not received a study and therefore do not even know that they have become human rights violators. Do not care. They received money from the gulf clan to do harm and make this violence look like a social strike. They harm their own people and their families.”condemned Petro.
The response of the deputy Alexia Rivas was forceful, as she assured that anyone, regardless of their titles, could become a criminal, she even mentioned the case of El Salvador, as she explained that several former presidents of the said nation were charged with various crimes.
“There are criminals with titles. In El Salvador, the biggest thieves were former presidents. It is a mistake to believe that because someone has no education they are inclined to become a criminal. With or without delinquent titles, he is a delinquent”.
The Salvadoran deputy from the Nuevas Ideas bench (Bukele’s government party), took advantage of the president’s false starts and the whole situation that the country has been going through in recent days, to come forward and question Petro’s movements, even comparing the statistics of the first leftist president in Colombia with the figures of Nayib Bukele.
“Now he only needs about 40% to reach Nayib Bukele’s favor,” he explained.
Added to this is the appearance of Bukele on the cover of a Colombian magazine, a fact that the Central American lobbyist highlighted and underlined that the president is a reference in the territory of coffee, in addition to launching a satire on some politicians nationals, emphasizing that if they had been criminals, they had to serve their sentences in prison and not, having the possibility of legislating.
“In Colombia, President Nayib Bukele is not only a trend, but also an example. Criminals should be in jail, not sitting with politicians.”
Riva learned of the retention of nearly 80 police officers in San Vicente del Caguana fact made by residents of the sector, a situation that seemed to him scandalous and I doubt that it will be resolved in a timely manner, pointing out that the way in which the national government would intervene would be through the construction of schools establishments.
“They will surely solve it by building universities,” said the deputy, since it should be noted that in El Salvador she is one of the most important defenders of the ideal of Nayib Bukele, in addition to belonging to the party of the National President, New ideas.
The Salvadoran official even constantly monitored the Colombian political context, referring to President Petro’s request for an investigation with the Public Prosecutor’s Office, in order to inquire about the link between her brother and son with the alleged receipt of illicit money, because in this case, Alexia Rivas questioned the appointment of Danilo Rueda to the post of High Commissioner for Peace, ensuring that in his country, direct action is taken against crime.
