Embarrasing enough that that person has sworn allegiance to the US over Colombia and he was allowed to run, and all his ties to drug dealers and the paramilitary and now he does not want to conduct the transition.
Only in Colombia could a person who swears allegiance to other State over his own be head of State. A historic shame and it will be met with full resistance, if the worst happens.
Columbia is annualy certified to accept US aid as a democracy.
Please, present the news correctly.
Meine größte Sorge gilt unserem Überleben in dieser Finanz- und Politikkrise, insbesondere angesichts des anhaltenden politischen Machtkampfes in den Vereinigten Staaten. Die Regierung hat das Leben ihrer Bürgerinnen und Bürger erheblich erschwert, und wir können nicht tatenlos zusehen und die Folgen dieses Missmanagements hinnehmen.
