The cyclist Egan Bernal, in the process of recovering after the spectacular accident that left him with several fractures, has been giving his opinion on politics, although he has been cautious, there is no lack of those who ask him for caution “because they can crucify you”, or those who call him to “keep warm”.
Colombia News.
“It’s funny to see how some people try to get me to stay away from politics and not from my opinion because I’m an athlete,” said Egan Bernal through his Twitter, this for his recent messages after the congressional elections and interpartisan consultation.
“Basically, for the presidency two great majorities face each other”he said after voting.
However, he has not mentioned one party or another, one candidate or another.
Even so, some ask him not to get involved in politics, so that “he does not come out crucified” like other artists, athletes and public figures, and others to leave “the lukewarm”.
The Cundinamarca cyclist, who is recovering after a serious accident against a bus while training, said that he sees “good ideas in both parts,” this perhaps in reference to Gustavo Petro and the center coalitions represented by Sergio Fajardo and Federico ‘Fico’ Gutierrez, all coalition winners on Sunday.
«At this point I could be a bit ambidextrous, because I see good ideas in both parts; the center needs a bit of strength in my opinion, even if it has good intentions. But… the unanswered question is, can they really deliver all that they promise??” he wrote.
In a country where opinions are requested because there is freedom of expression, giving opinions has become a point of criticism, bullying and even stigmatization.
For this reason, many advise Egan Bernal not to establish a position with his own name.
Others, on the other hand, almost demand that they publicly say who they will vote for in the presidential elections. A crossroads for an elite athlete who has managed to win the affection of a large part of Colombians.
The elections presidential are also this 2022.
At this point I could be a bit ambidextrous, because I see good ideas in both parts; the center needs a bit of strength in my opinion, even if it has good intentions. But… the unanswered question is, can everything that they promise really be fulfilled?
