“She took like 76 years off (…) it looks like 15 springs,” says a user in a comment on his video on Instagram.
The memes did not wait. Some put it in an advertisement for a hair product.

On January 19, a car bomb exploded a few meters from a building in the city of Saravena, in the Colombian municipality of Arauca, where some 60 community leaders had gathered.
The activists survived the bombing because hours before the attack, they had erected makeshift barricades with plastic barrels they filled with stones as FARC dissidents, with Antonio Medina at the helm, were attempting on assassinating them.
The attack claimed one life, Simeón Delgado, who was a security guard at the Colombian Agricultural Institute headquarters where the van exploded causing extensive damage to several buildings, including the Héctor Alirio Martínez building which is used by community-led organizations and was the target of the attack.
Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last week, Chinese social media, usually a controlled space, is rife with conflicting comments about Ukraine. Censors have deleted thousands of posts — many containing vulgar sexual remarks about Ukrainian women — along with the accounts from which they originated.
A wide variety of comments are emerging hourly on the chatting platform WeChat; the Douyin video app, or Chinese TikTok; and Weibo, the Chinese version of Twitter.
Some social media users are asking the Chinese government to take advantage of the opportunity presented by the Ukrainian crisis to seize Taiwan. China regards the self-ruled island as a breakaway province, even though it has its own flag, currency, military and democratic institutions. The Chinese government has said it is ready to bring about a reunification with Taiwan, even if force is required.
Chinese social media is also witnessing an outpouring of support for Russia and criticism of the U.S. over its support for Ukraine. A small number of people are asking why Russian President Vladimir Putin tried to interfere in the affairs of another country by urging Russian-speaking residents of Ukraine to revolt against their local governments.

Significantly, some commenters are asking why the Chinese government did not stand by its ally Russia during a recent United Nations Security Council vote on a resolution to condemn Russia’s attack on Ukraine. China, India and United Arab Emirates chose to abstain from voting, a neutral stance.
Commenters have also ridiculed Ukraine for supposedly letting the U.S. make decisions for it.
China’s motives questioned
Along with the posts that are vulgar or praise violence, the Chinese censors have been removing expressions of anti-war sentiment, including an open letter circulated by several academicians calling for an end to the war.
“It is not an easy situation for the government. It cannot support the war. But it is also uncomfortable about intense parading of anti-war sentiment because this has implications on the political situation in Taiwan, Tibet and Hong Kong,” said a Chinese university professor who asked not to be named.

The state-controlled Global Times suggested in its Chinese-language edition that anti-Beijing separatists are behind some of the anti-war postings. “Some people surmise that clandestine ‘Taiwan separatists,’ ‘Hong Kong separatists’ and other forces are the ones making waves in public sentiment and public discourse on the Ukraine situation,” wrote Sun Jiashan, a researcher at the Chinese National Academy of Arts.
Yet the country’s internet censor, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC), initially stayed on the sidelines of the debate, allowing some posts questioning Moscow’s policy to remain up. This reflects a wider dilemma for Chinese authorities as their ally, Russia, supports and endorses a separatist movement in eastern Ukraine while carrying out an unprovoked attack on a neighbor.
“China overall is following events but not taking a clear stand, and why should it? For China this war is a lose-lose proposition,” said Francesco Sisci, a senior research associate at Renmin University of China in Beijing.
“If Russia wins, it gets stronger, and China will feel the weight again of the northern neighbor. If it loses, China will be more isolated,” Sisci told VOA. “Plus, it didn’t trust Russia to begin with. Still, China’s official stand is strongly anti-American, and [as seen] from Beijing, this war was set up by the U.S., which pushed Russia around.”

Nevertheless, the CAC and social media platforms have weeded out thousands of postings containing objectionable comments and videos. The agency said it was cracking down on “self-media” — social media accounts held by independent content producers who share irresponsible political ideas. It also said it wants to control the distribution of information across all internet platforms to end “disruption to the order of internet broadcasts.”
Douyin said it had removed 3,500 videos and 12,100 comments related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is investigating objectionable posts, such as those calling for the “capture of beautiful Ukrainian women,” spreading inappropriate values, and harming the platform’s atmosphere.
Backlash in Ukraine
Other postings suggest the Chinese government’s posture has prompted anger toward Chinese students studying in Ukraine. Several of them have cited hostility from local residents and expressed concern for their safety.
The Chinese flag is put on the fence of the Chinese embassy in Kyiv, Ukraine, March 1, 2022.
The Chinese Embassy in Kyiv initially asked its citizens to clearly identify their nationality while traveling in Ukraine. It later changed the order to say that they should stay indoors and not identify their nationality until further instructions are issued.
“The Ukrainians are going through difficulties. … We need to understand them and not provoke them,” the embassy told Chinese citizens in Ukraine.
The official Xinhua News Agency also joined the government in urging social media users to “discuss and present in a reasonable way” and criticized those who “spoke inappropriately.”
The balance left by a day of terror in Cartagena in the midst of the motorcycle taxi drivers’ strike is 27 vandalized Transcaribe buses, two stations with structural damage and twenty people captured.
The stations attacked were Bazurto and Cuatro Vientos, on Pedro de Heredia Avenue, where criminals destroyed glass doors and lockers.
Several corners of Pedro de Heredia Avenue were blocked by burning tires.
At various points, passengers were threatened and intimidated into getting off the Transcaribe service.

The origin of this social crisis
The mayor of the city, William Dau, announced from the Unified Command Post (PMU) of the National Police, in the Manga neighborhood, that several of the vandals who attacked the transportation system and blocked streets have been identified thanks to the cameras of security.
For 6 hours at various strategic points in Cartagena, pitched battles between police and motorcycle taxi drivers took place, and common criminals took advantage of the chaos to rob citizens and businesses.

The motorcycle taxi drivers’ union does not agree with the new decree implemented by the District for motorcycle taxi drivers, especially the prohibition of traveling through corridors such as Pedro de Heredia Avenue, the umbilical cord that connects the center with the south of the city. In addition to drastic peak and plate measures, which apply to two daily numbers.
The latest measures of the District are added to the bans on motorcycle grills in neighborhoods such as Crespo, Manga, the Historic Center, and in 12 more neighborhoods, in addition to the tourist area of Bocagrande. In addition to two Fridays a month in which the circulation of motorcycles is prohibited.
Attacks by motorcycle taxi drivers on Transcaribe outrage the country
All this package of measures have been added and have exalted the spirits of the motorcycle taxi drivers who have failed in seven conciliation tables with Mayor Dau, of which both parties have ended up hitting the dialogue table amid expletives from both sides.

“In the work groups that we had been carrying out since April of last year, we had submitted proposals because we could not give up more routes, and with this new decree it takes away our main work route. We have been fooled and he imposes a decree at his convenience,” says José Antonio Julio Ahumedo, leader of the United Motorcycle Federation of Colombia, Femucol.
Blockades on main roadsBlockages and tire burning in the Pedro de Heredia Avenue
The Bazurto bus station was vandalized. They also tried to set fire to a system vehicle in Pie del Cerro.
The president of Cartagena defends the measure with figures in hand which show that the robberies and crimes of hired killers, have motorcyclists with barbecues as protagonists by 70 percent. In addition, motorcycle accidents are also on the rise. The last episode was the tragic death of a doctor and a motorcycle taxi driver who died in a road accident.
In addition, the District maintains that behind motorcycle taxiing there are mafias of businessmen who own up to 100 motorcycles who charge 20 thousand pesos a day for unemployed people to work on them and earn a few pesos.

This is the portrait of the economic tragedy of a city that seems not to see the gains from economic reactivation and where poverty and informality are the order of the day.
“We ask for a census of the union, that they train us, that we have a card, a uniform, that the District promote order,” adds Ahumedo.
The District itself has said that about 75,000 people support motorcycle taxis in their homes, but for the motorcycle union the figure is doubled.

Social organizations demonstrate in Valledupar in rejection of the crimes of the leaders Teófilo Manuel Acuña and Jorge Tafur, registered last Tuesday in Puerto Oculto, district of San Martín, municipality in the south of Cesar.
The victims were spokespersons for the Interlocution Commission of the south of Bolívar, for the center and south of Cesar, south of Magdalena and Processes of the Santanderes (CISBCSC). Both received bullet wounds in different parts of the body, by armed men who approached them in the middle of a family gathering.

“It is a reprehensible fact that could have been avoided. We had already been publicly denouncing the violation of human rights and the systematic threat against our main spokespersons on national and international stages,” stressed Nadia Umaña, spokesperson for this organization.
Teófilo Acuña was facing a process for the crime of rebellion and others along with two peasant leaders linked to the National Agrarian Coordinator.
“This is a judicial set-up that they mounted against him. Since they couldn’t with this process, they facilitated his murder, ”said the spokeswoman.
For his part, Tafur had a career as a trade unionist, participated in the struggles of the National Association of Peasant Users – Anuc and in November 2021 he was elected a member of the National Board of the National Agrarian Coordinator.
The social group demands that the authorities investigate these murders, measures to stop these violent acts and threats from armed groups against the leaders.
“Before the murder, we had denounced that the landowner Wilmer Díaz was attacking the peasants in this sector. In fact, recently, a person was injured. The police and the mayor of San Martín met with them and nothing happened,” said a spokesperson.
The Interlocution Commission highlighted that the defenseless situation of the leaders in Cesar is critical. The double homicide of their spokesmen increases the abandonment on the part of the authorities and the institutional framework.
At this moment there are more than 15 threatened spokespersons in Tamalameque, Chimichagua, Pailitas, Astrea, among others.
“The State has responsibility because they know about these threats. The death of Teófilo and Jorge could have been prevented. If they dared to attack them, what remains for us!” Acuña said through tears.
In this same context, they demand compliance with the agreements that have been proposed at the dialogue tables since 2005.
The protest will take place in the Plazoleta de la Gobernación del Cesar, starting at two in the afternoon.
The National Agrarian Coordinator Association of Colombia (CNA) has joined the event, which also rejected and lamented the events.
“We warn about the risks of our organizations. We reiterate our decision to continue fighting in defense of our social processes”, highlighted the CNA in a statement.

La nueva red social de Donald Trump, Truth Social (Verdad Social, en español), ha aparecido a última hora del domingo en la App Store de Apple para su descarga, aunque todavía no está operativa para todos los estadounidenses. El expresidente de Estados Unidos continúa bloqueado de las principales plataformas -Twitter, Facebook, Instagram y YouTube- por los mensajes incendiarios que publicó el 6 de enero de 2021 durante el asalto al Capitolio. Las tecnológicas cerraron las cuentas del republicano por considerar que incitaban a la violencia y por esparcir los bulos sobre un supuesto fraude electoral en las presidenciales de noviembre de 2020.
Mientras Trump mantiene en secreto si se presentará nuevamente a la presidencia para 2024, el magnate ha decidido incursionar en el mundo de la comunicación con la empresa Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) está detrás de la red social. La empresa que ha recaudado 1.000 millones de dólares en inversiones privadas es dirigida por el excongresista republicano Devin Nunes, que el pasado diciembre dejó su cargo en la Cámara de Representantes para sumarse a los esfuerzos por devolver a Trump un megáfono en las redes sociales. TMTG se fusionará con Digital World Acquisition Corp, una compañía que se dedica a la venta de acciones al público, y que ya está operativa en Nasdaq, el índice bursátil estadounidense de las grandes tecnológicas.
“Debido a la alta demanda, te hemos puesto en la lista de espera. Te amamos, y no eres un número para nosotros, pero tu número en la lista de espera es 219.351″, es el mensaje que ha aparecido a este periódico al abrir la aplicación, que estará completamente operativa a finales de marzo. Esta mañana Truth Social era la aplicación más descargada de la App Store de Apple. “Nuestro objetivo es, y creo que lo vamos a lograr, que a finales de marzo estará en pleno funcionamiento al menos dentro de Estados Unidos”, afirmó este domingo Nunes en el programa de María Bartiromo en Fox News.
El ostracismo de las principales plataformas fue el motor para que Trump buscara una nueva alternativa que lo conectara a sus seguidores. El objetivo de Truth Social es “crear un rival del consorcio de medios progresistas”, dijo el republicano cuando anunció su lanzamiento, “y luchar contra las grandes tecnológicas de Silicon Valley, que han usado su poder unilateral para oponerse a voces en Estados Unidos”. Ya existen siete nuevas redes sociales que se presentan con la premisa de ser verdaderos espacios para la libertad de expresión, entre ellas Gettr, Parler y Rumble, según un recuento de The New York Times.

Donald Trump’s new social media venture, Truth Social, appears set to launch in Apple’s App Store on Monday, according to posts from an executive on a test version viewed by Reuters, potentially marking the return of the former president to social media on the U.S. Presidents Day holiday.
Led by former Republican U.S. Representative Devin Nunes, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), the venture behind Truth Social, will join a growing portfolio of technology companies that are positioning themselves as champions of free speech and hope to draw users who feel their views are suppressed on platforms such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.
So far none of the companies, which include Twitter competitors Gettr and Parler and video site Rumble, have come close to matching the popularity of their mainstream counterparts.
“This week we will begin to roll out on the Apple App Store. That’s going to be awesome, because we’re going to get so many more people that are going to be on the platform,” Nunes said in a Sunday appearance on Fox News’ ‘Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo’.
“Our goal is, I think we’re going to hit it, I think by the by the end of March we’re going to be fully operational at least within the United States,” he added.
Also, in a series of posts late on Friday, a verified account for the network’s chief product officer, listed as Billy B., answered questions on the app from people invited to use it during its test phase. One user asked him when the app, which has been available this week for beta testers, would be released to the public, according to screenshots viewed by Reuters.
“We’re currently set for release in the Apple App store for Monday Feb. 21,” the executive responded.
The launch would restore Trump’s presence on social media more than a year after he was banned from Twitter Inc., Facebook and Alphabet Inc.’s YouTube following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by his supporters, after he was accused of posting messages inciting violence.
On Feb. 15 Trump’s eldest son Donald Jr. posted on Twitter a screenshot of his father’s verified @realDonaldTrump Truth Social account with one post, or “truth,” that he uploaded on Feb. 14: “Get Ready! Your favorite President will see you soon!”
In addition to the post disclosing Monday’s launch date, the screenshots seen by Reuters show the app is now at version 1.0, suggesting it has reached a level ready for public release. As late as Wednesday, it was at version 0.9, according to two people with access to that version.
A representative for TMTG did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Apple’s App Store listing indicates that Truth Social is expected to be released on Feb. 21, a date that a source familiar with the venture confirmed in January. But in recent weeks, Nunes had said publicly that the app would launch by the end of March.
On Friday, Nunes was on the app urging users to follow more accounts, share photos and videos and participate in conversations, in an apparent attempt to drum up activity, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.
Among Nunes’ posts, he welcomed a new user who appeared to be a Catholic priest and encouraged him to invite more priests to join, according to the person with knowledge of the matter.
The chief product officer’s other responses during Friday’s question-and-answer session suggested the startup’s features would resemble those of Twitter.
Asked whether users would be able to edit their “truths,” the executive replied “not yet.” The ability to edit posts after publication is something Twitter users have long sought.
The next significant feature released on the platform will be direct messages, or DMs, between users, the executive wrote.
The company is also considering allowing users to sign up to receive notifications when others post content, the executive said. He signaled that the ability to block other users would be an important component.
“There will always be block functionality in the app,” he wrote.
Truth Social will issue a policy on verified accounts “in the coming weeks,” the executive added.
Even as details of the app begin trickling out, TMTG remains mostly shrouded in secrecy and is regarded with skepticism by some in tech and media circles. It is unclear, for example, how the company is funding its current growth.
TMTG is planning to list in New York through a merger with blank-check firm Digital World Acquisition Corp (DWAC) and stands to receive $293 million in cash that DWAC holds in a trust, assuming no DWAC shareholder redeems their shares, TMTG said in an Oct. 21 press release.
Additionally, in December TMTG raised $1 billion committed financing from private investors; that money also will not be available until the DWAC deal closes.
Digital World’s activities have come under scrutiny from the Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, according to a regulatory filing, and the deal is likely months away from closing.
Nuevamente las voces de nuestros líderes comunitarios han sido silenciadas, esta vez, con el asesinato de Juan Carlos Jaramillo, líder social del corregimiento de Guabas, en el municipio de Guacarí, Valle del Cauca.

A new pamphlet circulates in the department of Cesar in which threaten several people. bullying is against Luis Aguilar de Curumaní and Jimmy Herazo de Pelaya, calling them “promoting leftist, communist and revolutionary political forces” in these areas of the Colombian Caribbean.

“They have been declared military objectives for our organization and we will begin to act against them and their lives, because they threaten the democratic security of the state,” reads the pamphlet signed by the alleged Black Eagles.
National early warning for social leaders
Under the protection of this alert we have been following up on the case of Herazo, who had a relative killed and he associated him with these threats to intimidate him.
Herazo has been the victim of threats on other occasions, for several cases of land restitution in Pelaya.
From the Ombudsman’s Office there is a National early warning for social leaders, whose process is being monitored.
“The government has been ordered to take measures and actions. Under the protection of this alert, we have been following up on the case of Herazo, who had a relative killed and he associated him with these threats to intimidate him,” highlighted a source from the Defender.

The warnings in these pamphlets took Luis Aguilar, a law student, by surprise, who requested the necessary support from the pertinent authorities since his life is at risk.
“This is the first time that they have threatened me. Which surprises me, because in my house nobody is a politician. Everything comes because I commented in a meeting that the current political class does not represent us. Now, irresponsibly, these pamphlets are circulating and exposing us danger. I want the authorities to guarantee us the right to live in peace and freedom of expression,” stressed Aguilar.

Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen arrived at the English club Brentford’s training camp on Monday for the first time since his transfer was made official, reached on the last day of the transfer market last January.

Chinese tennis player Peng Shuai is again denying that she had accused a former Communist Party official of sexually assaulting her in a social media post late last year.
L’Equipe, a French daily sports newspaper, published an interview it conducted with Peng in its Monday edition.
“I never said anyone had sexually assaulted me in any way,” Peng is quoted in the interview after she is asked directly if she actually wrote the post on her account on China’s Weibo social media platform.
In the November 2 post, Peng, a former Olympian who won titles at Wimbledon and the French Open, said former Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli coerced her into sex before it evolved into an on-off consensual relationship. Her post was quickly deleted and she vanished from public view for several days. She eventually appeared at a tennis event and spoke by video with Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee president, during which she said she was safe.
Her public absence sparked concern among some of the world’s top tennis players, including Naomi Osaka, Serena Williams, Billie Jean King and Novak Djokovic, and the Women’s Tennis Association suspended all of its sponsored tournaments in mainland China and Hong Kong.
Peng told L’Equipe the initial post had caused a huge “misunderstanding” and that she did not want it to attract any more attention, and insisted that she had deleted it herself “because I wanted to.” She also explained that her “disappearance” was simply due to her being unable to respond “to so many messages.” Peng said her personal life since the controversy surfaced had been uneventful, and stressed that her private life and personal problems should not be mixed with sports and politics.
Peng also told the newspaper she was retiring from tennis.
She also said she had dinner with IOC President Bach Saturday, which the IOC confirmed in a separate statement Monday.
Bach told the Reuters news agency when asked about Peng’s interview that any communication “is up to her, it is her life, it is her story.”
The newspaper said it submitted the questions to Peng in advance and conducted the interview in Chinese. Wang Kang, the chief of staff of the Chinese Olympic Committee, accompanied Peng during the interview and translated her answers for the reporter.
WTA Chairman and CEO Steve Simon called for an open investigation into Peng’s initial accusations after a Chinese state-run media outlet released a statement it said was an email Peng had sent to Simon in which she denied the allegations and insisted she was not missing or unsafe, but just “resting at home.”
Peng issued a similar denial back in December during a virtual interview that was posted on the website of the Singapore-based Chinese-language newspaper Lianhe Zaobao.

El mandato de Iván Duque ha entrado en la recta final. El próximo 7 de agosto, a las tres de la tarde, el jefe de Estado más joven de la historia reciente de Colombia abandonará con 46 años la Casa de Nariño y empezará la extraña vida de los expresidentes. En esa etapa, Duque planea estar más cerca de su familia y dedicar tiempo a escribir sobre su personaje favorito: Simón Bolívar. “Quiero hacer una biografía retadora, profundamente política, que evite los lugares ya explorados”, dice el mandatario sentado sobre una tarima recubierta de terciopelo rojo en la Plaza de Armas de Bogotá. Ahí, al aire libre, concede la entrevista a EL PAÍS.
Es un día genuinamente bogotano. Gris y soleado al mismo tiempo. A Duque se le ve más sosegado que en mayo pasado, cuando una ola de protestas incendió el país. Alejada aquella tensión, su presidencia recorre los meandros finales con unas cotas de popularidad bajas (él lo discute) y eclipsado por la efervescencia preelectoral que sacude a Colombia. Duque parece consciente de ello y a lo largo de la entrevista se afana en destacar lo que considera los logros de su mandato.
Pregunta. Durante su mandato, Colombia ha sufrido el embate de la pandemia, un huracán de fuerza 5, las mayores revueltas en 70 años, una crisis migratoria sin precedentes… ¿Qué le ha costado más gestionar?
Respuesta. El momento más difícil fue el intento el año pasado de ciertos sectores de bloquear todo el aparato productivo del país. Yo respeto la protesta social pacífica, pero ahí se vio el deseo de los grupos armados y de la criminalidad organizada de empujar a Colombia al colapso. Pese a ello, logramos el mayor crecimiento económico en casi 115 años.
P. ¿Puede repetirse el fenómeno?
R. Esto es algo que puede ocurrir no solo en Colombia, sino en el mundo entero. En España, vivieron un fenómeno doloroso en Cataluña. En Francia, con los chalecos amarillos… lo hemos visto en muchos lugares. Uno de los retos de la democracia moderna es saber responder a las reclamaciones pacíficas y justas de los ciudadanos, pero también operar con el Estado de derecho y con la respuesta proporcional y ajustada a los derechos humanos de la fuerza pública, porque nadie puede pisotear los derechos de otros. Esos retos se vuelven aún más complejos cuando hay personajes que quieren capitalizar políticamente el malestar, generar odio y desestabilización.

P. Y volviendo la vista atrás, ¿qué cambiaría de lo que hizo?
R. Siempre hay cosas que uno piensa que las hubiera podido hacer mejor o antes. Por ejemplo, con la reforma fiscal nos faltó más pedagogía y hacer entender al país que se trataba de un cambio estructural para los próximos 50 años. No importa; aprendimos la lección, la retiramos y luego conseguimos sacarla adelante.
P. Usted llegó al Gobierno de la mano de Uribe, pero las relaciones se agriaron. ¿Qué ha pasado?
R. Yo llegué de la mano de más de 10 millones de votos. Llegué después de haber pasado por un proceso abierto a todo tipo de escrutinios y debates. Gané primero en mi partido 16 encuestas, no se perdió ni una sola. Fui luego a una consulta abierta y obtuve cuatro millones de votos. En la primera vuelta de las elecciones logré siete millones de votos, y en la segunda, 10 millones. Con el expresidente Uribe no tengo sino amistad, lo he admirado siempre y le reconozco su aporte a la historia de Colombia. Podemos tener diferencias, pero en el disenso se logran muchas cosas. Hoy tengo con él una relación personal y profesional inmejorable, y espero mantenerla así siempre.
P. ¿Y no le han dolido las críticas que le ha hecho?
R. En política uno tiene que saber diferenciar los tipos de crítica. Cuando son constructivas, hay que asumirlas con humildad, y cuando son destructivas, pues sencillamente no atenderlas. Yo siempre he notado en Uribe un interés constructivo; podemos tener diferencias, las hemos tenido y las seguiremos teniendo; eso forma parte de las relaciones personales y políticas. Pero tengo la tranquilidad de que hemos gobernado con el plan de gobierno con el que fuimos elegidos. Todos los días trabajamos para cumplir esas 203 propuestas.
P. Entra en la recta final de su mandato con un índice de popularidad muy bajo, ¿a qué lo atribuye?
R. Depende, depende… la semana pasada salió una encuesta que me daba el 40%. En general, me estoy manteniendo en números muy similares a la votación que tuve en la primera vuelta. Trabajo todos los días para mejorar, pero no amarrado ni intimidado ni coaccionado por las encuestas. Más importante que una encuesta es cumplir el plan de Gobierno.
Iván Duque, durante la entrevista con EL PAÍS.Camilo Rozo
P. Durante las revueltas de la primavera pasada expresó su deseo de lograr un gran pacto con todos los partidos. Y esto no ha sido posible.
R. Pero hay cosas que se logran. En diciembre pasado obtuvimos el respaldo unánime del Congreso a la ley de acción climática. Esto demuestra que se pueden hacer pactos sobre temas que nos unen. También conseguimos un gran apoyo del Congreso a la agenda social y aprobamos la reforma fiscal, la más grande de este siglo, con más del 70% del voto. Siempre hay causas comunes que están por encima de las rencillas cotidianas.
P. Habla de unanimidad pero en el panorama político colombiano lo que se observa es atomización y mucho enfrentamiento.
R. No es un fenómeno solamente colombiano. En España, por ejemplo, nunca antes había estado la política tan polarizada como ahora, con una coalición de Gobierno que tiene incluso que aliarse con separatistas. También ocurre en Estados Unidos, Francia, Italia, Reino Unido… La política es cada vez más compleja; las noticias falsas se mueven con facilidad, las redes sociales son instrumentos para ventilar odios y fragmentar las sociedades. Esos fenómenos, exacerbados por una pandemia y por el deseo de muchos de lograr el liderazgo a base de promover el caos, hacen que la política esté más polarizada. Es un fenómeno de nuestro tiempo que pone a prueba las democracias. No tenemos que tenerle miedo, pero tenemos que aprender cómo resolverlo.
P. Hablando de la polarización, hay muchos que consideran que el uribismo, y desde luego Álvaro Uribe, han polarizado este país.
R. Cuando la política se mira con la perspectiva de las barras bravas, siempre se va a tratar de buscar culpables. Aunque muchos tratan de ubicarlo en los extremos, Centro Democrático es un partido donde las líneas extremas son minoría. La gran mayoría de las personas que están en el partido han estado abiertas a construir consensos en el Congreso y otros sectores. Lo que pasa es que en la política actual vivimos más la apariencia que la realidad, pueden más las percepciones que los hechos.
P. ¿Y cómo analiza lo que está ocurriendo con la coalición de centro?
R. Yo siempre me he considerado de extremo centro. ¿Y qué quiere eso? Pues nunca salir del centro. Pero yo veo que hay sectores que son de centro-izquierda y que quieren acreditarse como de centro y se pelean y se insultan y se señalan… De todos modos, el escenario político colombiano se decantará con las consultas del próximo 13 de marzo. Entonces tendremos un panorama electoral mucho más claro.
P. ¿Y cuál es su candidato preferido?
R. No tengo candidatos preferidos.
P. ¿Qué piensa de Rodolfo Hernández?
R. Es un candidato que en este momento está presentando sus ideas. Él estuvo en la gestión local y ha iniciado un recorrido nacional, y me parece bien que esté en la actividad política, planteando temas y tesis. La política es de plantear tesis. Es importante que en este debate que se viene, los colombianos pueden diferenciar entre los que quieren construir y los que quieren destruir, entre los que son demagogos y los pedagogos, entre los que quieren una sociedad que conviva exitosamente con el sector privado y los que llegan con un discurso de expropiador y de ruptura frente a la iniciativa privada.
P. ¿Y no teme alguna interferencia violenta en el proceso electoral? ¿Algún atentado o magnicidio?
R. Desafortunadamente, este tipo de asuntos han estado presentes en Colombia en múltiples ocasiones. El terrorismo trata de buscar espacios para generar zozobra, pero el Estado es ahora más fuerte y tiene más capacidad para prevenir actos criminales. Si el terrorismo pretende manchar la elección, será primero golpeado contundentemente. Y desde luego, que el ELN no busque a través del terror concesiones de negociación porque nadie va a ceder.
P. ¿No se ha planteado una negociación?
R. ¿Qué tipo de negociación se puede plantear? Cuando llegué a la presidencia, analicé los 17 meses de conversaciones del Gobierno anterior: hubo 400 actos de terrorismo, 100 asesinatos y más de 10 secuestros. Ante eso dijimos que cualquier espacio de construcción de paz partía de la base de liberar a los secuestrados y poner fin a los actos criminales. ¿Cómo respondieron ellos? Con barbarie, asesinando 22 jóvenes que estaban formándose para servirle a Colombia. Y ahora persisten en la violencia; es terrorismo demencial. Solo puede haber una oportunidad creíble de conversación si ponen fin a los actos criminales, lo demás sería avalar el crimen como un vehículo de negociar con el Estado. En una democracia, ese tipo de prácticas deben ser rechazadas claramente; este país da garantías para que las personas puedan elegir libremente sin que tenga que existir un arma de por medio.
R. Se lo voy a devolver de esta manera: cuando empezó mi Gobierno, alrededor de 3 millones de hogares recibían transferencias económicas, ahora son casi 10 millones. Es decir, esta reactivación ha tenido presente el apoyo a los más vulnerables. También hemos tomado medidas para mantener el poder adquisitivo de los trabajadores: a lo largo de mi presidencia el aumento real acumulado del salario mínimo ha sido del 11.6% frente al 11.3% de los ocho años del Gobierno anterior y del 9.7% de 2002 al 2010. Eso muestra que el crecimiento ha tenido equidad.
R. Lo mismo está pasando en España, Alemania, Italia, Francia, Reino Unido, Estados Unidos… Hay un fenómeno inflacionario mundial detonado por factores externos, como la disponibilidad de contenedores, el aumento en los costos de flete o las dificultades en la cadena logística mundial. Es un reto complejo. Si crece la inflación, normalmente hay que subir tasas para contenerla, pero hacerlo ante un fenómeno que es abiertamente externo no necesariamente lo conjura. Por eso hay que aplicar finura: controlar la inflación para que no se convierta en algo que termine afectando a los más vulnerables y, por otro lado, mantener políticas de control a través de tasas sin restar dinamismo económico. La inflación ciertamente es el impuesto más costoso para los vulnerables.
P. ¿No cree que las altas cifras de pobreza de Colombia indican un fracaso histórico en la redistribución de la riqueza?
R. Primero tenemos que celebrar los logros. ¿Por qué? Hace 40 años no existían las transferencias económicas para los más vulnerables. Hoy estamos garantizándolas a casi cuatro millones de hogares a través del ingreso solidario y, si sumamos todo, hablamos de casi 10 millones. Además, están mejorando la expectativa de vida, las muertes por desnutrición, la mortalidad maternal posparto… Respecto a la pobreza, claro, vino la pandemia y nos llevó a que pasara del 37% al 42% de la población. Pero si no hubiéramos tomado medidas, habríamos superado el 50%. Hoy el reto es recuperar los niveles prepandémicos y seguir a la baja. Espero que este año podamos dejar a Colombia casi en niveles prepandémicos en materia de pobreza y con un dinamismo económico que permita al próximo Gobierno seguir esa senda.
P. Hablando del próximo Gobierno, a la izquierda se le atribuye mayor capacidad de redistribución. En Colombia, no ha habido gobiernos de izquierda. ¿No cree que esto es una anomalía?
R. Me fascina que me diga usted que los gobiernos de izquierda siempre son…
P. Yo digo que se les atribuye.
R. Bueno, pues se les atribuye, pero le voy a decir algo. Muchos desde la izquierda han tratado de catalogarme como de extrema derecha. Y un Gobierno como el nuestro, ¿qué le deja a Colombia? Primero, la mayor inversión social en educación pública superior. Segundo, haber duplicado los beneficiarios de los programas sociales. Tercero, haber realizado el 50% de todas las transferencias económicas hechas en 20 años, así como la mayor asignación de subsidios de vivienda de interés social y la mayor entrega de títulos de propiedad en el campo. Eso son hechos incontrovertibles. A muchos partidos de izquierda en América Latina les gusta hablar en contra de la pobreza, pero la multiplican porque entorpecen la inversión y la iniciativa privada, y fracturan las sociedades. Muchos de esos fenómenos de izquierda radical convierten las democracias en dictocracias y luego en dictaduras. Les guste o no les guste a muchos, este Gobierno deja la mayor inversión social en la historia de nuestro país.
P. En Colombia no dejan de morir asesinados firmantes de los acuerdos de paz, activistas de los derechos humanos. Es una sangría masiva, ¿qué está pasando?
R. Empecemos por llamar a las cosas por su nombre. ¿Quién ha matado a la gran mayoría de personas en proceso de reincorporación? Las disidencias de las FARC, el ELN, el clan del Golfo, Los Pelusos y Los Caparros, organizaciones que existían antes de la firma. Yo pregunto: ¿Iván Márquez, Jesús Santrich, El Paisa, Romaña… [líderes de las disidencias de las FARC] no fueron firmantes de la paz? Todos esos delincuentes volvieron al terrorismo y han atentado contra quienes están aportándole a la reincorporación. Hay que enfrentarse a ese crimen organizando y eliminar esos símbolos del mal, sacarlos de circulación. Pero también hay que encarar la causa de todos esos fenómenos, que es el narcotráfico. Y aquí, a pesar de los obstáculos judiciales que hemos tenido que sortear, le hemos mostrado al mundo que contuvimos el crecimiento exponencial de los cultivos ilícitos y que hemos golpeado las estructuras más temidas del narcotráfico, y eso incluye la captura de Otoniel, el más peligroso narcotraficante en este país desde Pablo Escobar.
P. A usted le acusan desde algunos sectores de no haber apoyado lo suficiente el desarrollo de los acuerdos de paz.
R. Cuando el secretario general de Naciones Unidas, António Guterres, vino hace unos meses puso a Colombia como un referente para el mundo. No le pongamos a esto mezquindad, no le pongamos politiquería, miremos los hechos: este Gobierno ha demostrado su compromiso con la paz con legalidad y lo mantendrá hasta el último día, el 7 de agosto a las 3.00 de la tarde.
P. ¿Y no ha cambiado su visión a lo largo del mandato respecto a cuando usted era candidato y criticaba el acuerdo?
R. Sí, y la verdad, yo creo que hay algo que a mí me tocó el alma. Me he dedicado a escuchar y he ido a hablar con muchas de las familias en proceso de reincorporación. Y tengo la firme convicción de que quienes están apostando genuinamente por ello deben contar con el respaldo nuestro. Yo termino el 7 de agosto, pero después, mi voz, mi trabajo estarán orientados a seguir ayudando a esas personas para que su proceso sea exitoso. Seguiré siendo un defensor de la paz con legalidad, seguiré siendo una voz exigente de verdad, justicia, reparación y no repetición. Yo no estoy haciendo esto porque me toque o porque alguien me haya obligado, yo hago esto por convicción. No busco premios, lo que busco es que esas personas que apostaron por la reincorporación tengan un ciclo de vida exitoso y que puedan darse cuenta que su camino con las armas siempre estuvo equivocado y que es mucho más grande la Colombia que construye en paz, armonía y consonancia con el Estado de derecho.
R. No es solo mío. Mi política con Venezuela no ha sido unilateral, ha sido multilateral. La prueba de ello es que hay más de 55 países que no reconocen a Nicolás Maduro como autoridad legítima en Venezuela. Eso es un logro.
P. Pero Maduro sigue, y su objetivo era que se fuera.
R. Sí, tristemente, pero que 55 países del mundo se hayan dado cuenta de que es un oprobio reconocer ese régimen es un logro. También lo es que haya una voz legítima y democrática para que la resistencia al régimen sea reconocida, respaldada y aplaudida internacionalmente. Al mismo tiempo le hemos demostrado al mundo que podemos ser fraternos con los hermanos venezolanos que huyen de esa dictadura, dándoles estatus de protección temporal, sin dejar de denunciar a quien es el Slobodan Milosevic de América Latina.
