Although in recent weeks he had been very active, this week the president elect Gustavo Petro added more than 120 hours without appearing, which provoked all kinds of comments. On August 2, moreover, he stood up hundreds of mayors at a meeting and still hasn’t named more than half of his ministerial cabinet.
From his campaign team they pointed out; however, that in the last days he was in the Mountain range of La Macarena. On his Twitter account, the elected president shared a video in which he shows that he toured that area of the country.
This August 4, in addition, his team shared what will be his agenda in the next few hours. As confirmed, Petro will be in a meeting with the Apostolic Nunciature.
This is a private meeting that will take place in the heart of downtown Bogotá around 9:00 am today. The appointment will also be attended by Petro’s appointed foreign minister, Alvaro Leyva Duran.
The next foreign minister has also been on the lips of public opinion this week because of the statements he made on the construction of total peace, one of the most robust proposals of the incoming Petro government.
Leyva Durán assured in a meeting that in the framework of the peace talks that will take place from now on, they will begin to speak of the term “reception” and not of “submission” of some armed groups.
This, he pointed out, might be reflected in benefits for those in arms who show a real willingness to cooperate in the search for peace.
Petro reappeared on Twitter
Ad portas of his presidential inauguration, Petro was away from social networks. However, following four days of not making a statement, he spoke on his Twitter account on the morning of August 4.
“Preparing the official image in the Serranía de la Macarena. The immensity of biodiversity and its climates. The magic of Colombia, world power of life,” she wrote.
The pronouncement produced doubts since in its joint work and in the proposals of the first 100 days of government it does not have references to the Serrania de la Macarena.
From his team they explained that Petro was in La Macarena in recent days producing the official image of what his Presidency will be.
