EL TIEMPO contacted Senator Ávila and asked him if it can be considered that his wife’s appointment is a quota assigned to him by the government and if he is going to silence him regarding the projects that will be discussed in the Senate – such as the health- and public order problems.

“She has more political contacts than me. In fact, I knew that this moment was going to come because she had already rejected two proposals to become the Government,” said Ávila.
