Leftist president criticized: Reaction to Colombia’s million-dollar rent of the WEF tent

Colombian President Gustavo Petro (M.) at the inauguration of the Guatemalan President on Sunday.

Apparently his delegation rented the building on the promenade in Davos for about a million francs for four days. Conservative Colombian lawmaker and businesswoman María Fernanda Cabal accused leftist Petro of wasting money.

“How is this? “Petro spends his time talking badly about capitalism and the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, but spends 4 billion 588 million pesos to rent a house in Switzerland for four days,” he wrote on the text message service X.

“For Colombia tourism”

Petro eventually explained to X that the house was not designed for him but “for tourism in Colombia”. He wrote that the public exhibition in Davos will be seen by thousands of journalists, dignitaries and the richest people in the world.

It was initially rumored that Petro had canceled his trip to Switzerland because there was a ten-hour delay in his Guatemalan counterpart’s inauguration, thus jeopardizing the trip. However, Petro later confirmed that he would travel to the resort of Graubsund and then to Pope Francis at the Vatican. (SDA)
