After the end of this truckers’ strike, the governor of Antioquia, Andrés Julián Rendón, left a reflection for Antioquia and for the Government.
“For the National Government, there are causes and types of protests that are valid and others that are not. There are mobilizations that it calls legitimate and others that it criminalizes, calling them strange and obscure. This division that the National Government insists on seeking is not good for the country,” Rendón concluded.
