These days I am extra proud of my Colombian driver license 🇨🇴 😬
Colombian delegation to the UN leaves the room with raised fist.
Let these fascists know that their crimes will not be forgotten nor forgiven.
"The #US government wants to harm thousands of peasants; [the US government] is influenced by Colombian mafia politicians. Hundreds of thousands of peasants have been massacred, just as children are being massacred in Gaza. The massacres in #Colombia were carried out by politicians, senators, presidents, and ministers who were linked to and bribed by the Colombian drug mafia, allied at the same time with the extreme right in #Florida, and now allied with the Trump administration.”"

"Another issue #Petro addressed was #climate change. He said that the world has 10 years to make urgent changes before it reaches a point of no return. He proposed an energy transformation based on renewable energies to abandon fossil fuels. In this regard, he stated that #LatinAmerica and #Africa have a fundamental role to play in sustaining this change, and that the #UnitedStates and #Europe could benefit from this change for their own #survival."
