He also warned that, during a drought, the Magdalena river would dry up and Cartagena would not be able to send drinking water from that river to Santa Marta. #Política #Agua #SantaMarta (translated)

Gustavo Petro criticized a senator's attitude towards Guillermo Alfonso Jaramillo during a police promotion event to which, he said, the minister had been invited. He also stated that the senator had asked Jaramillo to leave the Senate chamber, despite Petro's belief that he should have been awarded the Cruz de Boyacá, a distinction he claimed to have granted him. Petro attributed improvements in citizens' perceptions of the Police to his government and said that 17,000 patrol officers had been promoted to subinspectors, that their salaries had been increased, and that officers linked to alias Pitufo had been removed from the institution. He added that Jaramillo had pushed for improvements in healthcare for police officers and their families and contributed to building the hospital in southern Bogotá. He claimed that Abelardo had returned the Police's medications to the Char clan. The president maintained that during his government, thefts and domestic violence had decreased and linked this reduction to lower poverty and hunger rates and an increase in the minimum vital wage. He also stated that improvement in economic conditions strengthened families. Petro asked when police and farmers had been seen uprooting coca crops on thousands of hectares planted during Iván Duque's government. He said that trust between the two groups was key to taking Colombia out of drug trafficking. Finally, he accused Abelardo of handing 16 key positions in different branches of the Government to people from his own office to facilitate the massive return of goods seized through asset forfeiture. Petro argued that this situation suggested the construction of a "mafia state" capable of unleashing another Colombian holocaust. #PolíticaColombiana #DerechosHumanos #Progreso (translated)

Denik P – Paukner Media addressed Filip Turek's apology for his statements about the DUHA Movement in a post. It stated that Turek repeated the wording of the court ruling in the video, but also mentioned which people he believed left the original team at the Ministry of the Environment. The author focused on their professional backgrounds and attitudes towards energy. Regarding Martin Sedlák, an advisor to Petr Hladík, it was written that he previously worked in the DUHA Movement and later led the Union of Modern Energy and the Alliance for a Zero-Emission Future. He attributed to him statements from 2009 and 2011 against the need for nuclear energy and stated that he collaborated with DUHA on delaying the completion of Temelín. Martin Ander, another former DUHA employee and advisor to the minister, was identified as a proponent of a zero-emission economy and strict measures against both coal and nuclear power plants. It was claimed that Ander advocated for the termination of Czech nuclear energy and that similar policies in Germany contributed to the consequences of the energy crisis. The head of the climate protection section at the ministry, Petr Holub, was also linked by the author to the DUHA Movement and opposition to nuclear energy. It was noted that Holub promoted climate education at the ministry and participated in the National Climate and Energy Plan, which, according to the post, set a 30% share of production from renewable sources. It was also claimed that Holub advocated for subsidy support in the law for the creation of renewable energy capacity corresponding to ten times the installed capacity of Dukovany. The author estimated the investment costs from 2023 to 2030 at 100 billion crowns per year and referred to a SEEPIA study. Eva Lejsalová, the director of PR at the ministry, was described by the author as a former director of the political institute of KDU-ČSL, not an environmental expert. Regarding communication director Martin Polívka, it was written that he was Hladík's chief of staff in Brno; according to the author, he did not have the necessary education and called himself a political marketing expert. Petr Holub's advisor, Edvard Sequens, was labeled as an anti-nuclear activist and a member of the Calla association. He attributed to him support for the rapid end of coal energy and industrial contraction and stated that the association opposed new reactors in Dukovany and Temelín even in 2025. According to the author, Sequens considered nuclear energy an outdated technology that could be replaced by renewable sources and lower energy consumption in industries. Regarding Radim Misiaček, the project director of acceleration zones, the author stated that his contract with the ministry included a fee of 7,000 crowns daily for selecting experts, without a specified working time. Among the selected, he mentioned Martin Abel, a candidate from the Greens and a member of the Climate Lawsuit association, and Eva Volfová, a politician from STAN, whom he claimed had gained a stake in a company drawing state contracts. He added that he believed the case was being investigated by the police. In conclusion, the author refused to assess whether they were experts. He reacted to the media's labeling of their departure from the ministry as an "exodus of experts" and "dismantling of the expert team," stating that he wanted to present the people Turek claimed to have "scraped" from the ministry. #HnutíDUHA #energetika #odborníci (translated)
