Encienden alarmas por proyecto del Pacto Histórico que afectaría al sector privado y la inversión extranjera

TL;DR

Senator Paloma Valencia criticizes a bill presented by congress members of the Pacto Histórico.
The bill allegedly allows the state to cancel mining contracts, environmental licenses, and natural resource exploration/exploitation authorizations based on "founded indications" rather than firm judicial decisions.
The initiative reportedly permits any interested party to request the government to suspend or reverse these types of contracts.
Concerns are raised about potential sanctions against businesses and multinationals for alleged human rights violations, described as an ambiguous concept prone to discretionary decisions.
The bill may allow "lifting the corporate veil" to hold partners, administrators, and beneficiaries responsible without proving fraud, merely based on "verifiable, multiple, or convergent facts."
Parent companies could be sanctioned for the actions of their subsidiaries in Colombia, potentially leading to companies relocating operations abroad.
Valencia argues the bill lacks precise definitions for human rights violations, allowing broad governmental persecution of businesses.
She believes this project would end the private sector in Colombia, leading to delays, unemployment, and poverty.
