Colombia Reports rejects US federal government until democracy is restored
by Adriaan Alsema August 14, 2020
The rejection of the administration of US President Donald Trump of the rule of law in Colombia to defend an alleged narco-terrorist impedes any cooperation until democracy is restored.
Until then, Trump, his sad excuse for a government and diplomatic corps are willingly complicit in terrorism, the systematic violations of human rights and organized crime in Colombia.
I express my unconditional solidarity with the American people, who have been suffering Trump’s utter misrule, racism, misogyny, nepotism and general disregard for democratic values for years.
I hope you, the American people, comprehend the grief caused in Colombia by Vice-President Mike Pence, who challenged Colombia’s Supreme Court’s decision to grant house arrest to former President Alvaro Uribe.
The mafioso Pence calls a hero is an admitted former Medellin Cartel associate who is on trial on charges related to his alleged ties to a a terrorist group that killed more than 4,000 people in the province where I live alone.
