Why did the Andi president clash with a Petro adviser?

The president of Andi, Bruce MacMasterand the presidential adviser on government business issues, John Fernandezstaged a confrontation on social networks after the leader of the industrial association said that President Petro would lead a “smear campaign” against companies.

(‘Colombia must become an environmental power for companies’).

“It is unheard of that a President who prides himself on defending minorities, the democratic debate, and who has been the victim of unfair accusations, has decided to lead a smear and stigmatization campaign against Colombian companies because we criticize his proposals,” MacMaster wrote.

Faced with the accusations, Juan Fernández responded to the publication directly defending President Gustavo Petro, despite the fact that the Andi president did not name anyone in the trill.

(The State cares about companies).

“Doctor Bruce Mac Master, Gustavo Petro is NOT leading any “smear and stigmatization campaign against Colombian companies”. Again it is dangerous to promote what is not true. Could it be that what is needed is a valid interlocutor in Andi?”.

It should be noted that a few days ago, in an interview with EL TIEMPO, the president of the association launched harsh criticism of the government and questioned the inability of the congressmen to reflect, who are the ones who decide.

He indicated that they have found a gigantic problem of the tax cascade for all companies, including holding companies.

“The free zone sector is also eventually going to be attacked in terms of breaking the rules that were brought in. In Colombia there are 45 billion pesos invested by the free zones, an amount of employment that exceeds 100,000 and that is probably finished too” he claimed.
