The President declared that all the Councils of Ministers will be transmitted.
News Colombia.
President Gustavo Petro, in a recent intervention on the Council of Ministers, presented the critical situation of breach of commitments by some ministries.
According to a study presented, a significant portion of the commitments assumed with the people have not been fulfilled, which generates a clear discrepancy in the performance of the different portfolios.
Petro considered it necessary to show this report to the public so that the people could know directly the Cabinet response to these breaches.
However, instead of offering clear solutions, some ministers chose to evade the questions and, instead, launched attacks that the president described as «cannibals and self -destructive«, A historical tradition that, according to him, is not only typical of the left, but of Colombian politics in general.
The president reaffirmed his commitment to transparency and democracy, announcing that all the Councils of Ministers will be broadcast on television, some even in national chain.
For Petro, this is a crucial measure for the people to know firsthand what happens within the government, without intermediaries that distort the information.
The president made it clear that those members of the cabinet interested in campaigning must step aside. On the other hand, those who are committed to compliance with the government program must remain firm.
According to Petro, the government will adjust based on the level of execution of each ministry, and its objective is to achieve a united and transparent administration in the remaining months of its mandate.
“I do not want a government with double agendas, but neither does a monolithic one, because the people are multicolored. It is the people who commands, nobody else”He said.
In this way, the president emphasized that the cabinet is nothing more than a tool to execute the promises made to the people, and that their duty is to comply with what is promised.
Yesterday, the study of the number of commitments made with the people and the high percentage of non -compliance in the ministries was presented to the Council of Ministers.
