In the last hours, García referred, in dialogue with the press, to the situation of the Uruguayan drug trafficker Sebastián Marset, who was granted a national passport when he was detained in Dubai for carrying a false Paraguayan passport.
García said that it is time to think about “a great democratic political pact against drug trafficking.”
It is a matter of democracy
“This cannot be a matter of fights and Chicanas between official and opposition political parties. It is an issue of democracy, of being all united to face the greatest threat that democracy has in Uruguay, which other countries have too, but this is our neighborhood,” added the Secretary of State.
He added that it is an issue, therefore, of the political system in general, of Justice and of all institutions.
“No political party is vaccinated against corruption, and neither against the corruption of drug trafficking,” García said.
