¿Le llegó el aguinaldo a Petro?
Por Alejandro De Bedout Arango - [email protected]
TL;DR
- Verónica Alcocer, wife of the president, has returned to the Casa de Nariño with significant influence despite holding no official title.
- Her presence involves public funding for security, logistics, and staff, operating as if she were a head of state.
- Critics argue this contradicts the government's stance on austerity and the absence of a formal 'First Lady' role.
- Alcocer's return is interpreted as a political maneuver in anticipation of electoral periods and government restructuring.
- Past controversies, including questionable international episodes and alleged cronyism, are highlighted as unaddressed issues.
- The public is seen as funding an unelected and unaccountable power, perceived as a contradiction to calls for belt-tightening.
