President of Colombia Gustavo Petronoted this Friday that if USA will change it drug policy and end the criminalization of consumption, which could bring peace to Colombia “in a matter of months”.
“Rebuilding drug policy based on public health prevention, not criminalization, could almost bring Colombia to peace in a matter of months. It depends on the United States,” Petro said in Paris.
In statements to the media at the end of the Paris Peace Forum, he asked US President Joe Biden to become a “peace champion”.
He explained that in the process of pacification in Colombia, The United States “plays a defining role because, depending on its drug policy, it brings violence or peace to South America.”
The reason is that, according to his analysis, the repressive policies launched by President Richard Nixon 50 years ago have led to “a million deaths in Latin America” in that time.
Agenda of the South
On the other hand, the President of Colombia welcomed the proposal he put forward on the occasion of COP 27, to reduce the debt of developing countries in exchange for investment in climate change, and that the International Monetary Fund should have its central axis (IMF), “has been welcomed as an agenda days of the South.
“I believe this South agenda needs to be strengthened,” he said.
He believed that the passage through Sharm el-Sheikh (Egypt), where this climate summit is taking place, left Colombia “as one of the vanguards of today.”
However, he indicated that he has “bad taste” to the point that after the 2015 COP, which adopted the Paris Accords on climate change, “every promise was broken” regarding adaptation.
And if there is no international funding, then, in his opinion, this is tantamount to “every man for himself” and, in the end, means “death or mass exodus” for “vulnerable peoples.”
“To the extent that the far right takes over governments in rich countries or enters into governments, there is a kind of policy of expelling poor people, which in a climate crisis means death,” he said.
