Carlos F. Galán urged the former president to act responsibly and recalled that, in his opinion, the words of a political leader could lead to violence, referring to Colombia's recent history. He stated that he was not an accomplice to any genocide and that, as mayor, he had respected peaceful demonstrations. According to what he wrote, during the protests the previous day, which turned violent, a church was attacked and a dialogue facilitator was assaulted, who had to be taken to a hospital. Galán said that is why police intervention was necessary and that this would be his instruction to law enforcement when needed to protect citizens and the dialogue team and to prevent violent attacks. #Colombia #Protestas #Violencia (translated)
