Between Petro and (Iván) Duque I have nothing to choose, it is clear that I am going to support Petro,” Cabello indicated in the middle of this week.
The decision of the CNE
It should be remembered that the CNE of Colombia announced on Tuesday that it decided to open an investigation and file charges against Peter and members of his team for allegedly violating the spending limits established in his presidential campaign and resorting to prohibited sources that did not declare.
Petro responded with strong criticism of the electoral body by ensuring that it is “infiltrated by the same politicians who have governed the country for decades.”
The Colombian leader maintained the day before that the CNE’s decision is “the first step of a coup d’état” against him and his Government announced today that it appealed to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IDH Court) that determination, considering that it violates the popular vote that elected Petro president in 2022.
