Gustavo Petro stated that an organizational chart showed that Abelardo had placed 16 members of his law firm in key positions that, he claimed, allowed for the return of assets to drug traffickers. He added that he would later show that many assets of drug traffickers removed from the OFAC list had been purchased by the National Land Agency (ANT) to be handed over to the peasantry, and that many were still in the process of extinction. #Narcotráfico #Corrupción #Justicia (translated)

Daniel F. Briceño wrote that, according to Eva Ferrer, Petro was helping large Colombian drug traffickers through the "total peace" initiative and Verónica Alcocer was transporting drugs to Venezuela on official planes. He added that some people on the left were still lamenting that both were on the OFAC list. #Colombia #PazTotal #Corrupción (translated)

Santiago Vélez stated that, according to Eva Ferrer, Verónica Alcocer had brought drugs to Venezuela on an official plane, entered Colombia with 2.5 million dollars from Venezuela, and was involved in arms trafficking. He added that, despite those accusations, some people continued to describe her inclusion in the OFAC as political. #Venezuela #TráficoDeDrogas #Noticias (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that sanctioning magistrates and judges constituted an ignominy against humanity and asserted that Latin America should not allow it. He said that the OFAC list should disappear and be replaced by an effective global instrument against drug traffickers. He also called for the replacement of political lists that, according to him, promoted apartheid and segregation with guarantees for free thought and expression, and proposed to rebuild a broader and deeper international law on that basis. He added that international justice should investigate and judge international drug trafficking and pursue drug traffickers and their assets anywhere in the world. #Justicia #DerechosHumanos #Narcotráfico (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that removing ships from the OFAC list and adding magistrates, judges, human rights leaders, and presidents like him—whom he described as defenders of the rights of the Palestinian people to have a sovereign state and to demand a trial for genocide against Netanyahu—turned the list into an instrument of apartheid, rather than a tool against drug trafficking. He called it a "Nazi instrument" directed against those who, as he wrote, sought social justice and peace. #DerechosHumanos #JusticiaSocial #Paz (translated)

Gustavo Petro announced that he would launch a global campaign against what he described as the United States government's policy of using the OFAC list to punish those who had called for Benjamin Netanyahu to be tried for genocide. Petro stated that Netanyahu had killed 75,000 civilians by bombing their homes, including 22,000 babies. He also argued that the OFAC law had become an instrument of impunity for genociders and that it should not be obeyed anywhere in the world. He added that more than a dozen magistrates, judges, human rights defenders, and political leaders committed to international law and human justice had been condemned to what he described as a global apartheid for seeking justice. #DerechosHumanos #JusticiaGlobal #Genocidio (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that the removal of dozens of Colombians linked to drug trafficking from the list of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) could be justified if those individuals had genuinely distanced themselves from drug trafficking, and he considered it a sovereign decision by the United States. On the other hand, he argued that the list had become an instrument to prevent Benjamin Netanyahu from being tried for genocide. He said that the United States had included on it eight of the 17 judges of the International Criminal Court, UN officials like Francesca Albanese, organizations defending the rights of Palestinians, and himself for denouncing the genocide in Gaza. He also noted that on August 18, 2026, Tomoko Akane, president of the ICC, was sanctioned, whom he described as a prominent Japanese jurist. Petro claimed that the list had lost global legitimacy and called on countries and their citizens not to comply with it. He urged the international human rights movement to launch a campaign to remove all affected individuals, including himself, and criticized aviation companies for hindering his free movement for defending the rights of the Palestinian people. Finally, he maintained that the list was used to persecute politically identified civil groups, something he characterized as a crime against humanity under the Rome Statute. He asserted that those participating in that persecution should be prosecuted before the ICC. #DerechosHumanos #Narcotráfico #Justicia (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that some airlines intended to apply the U.S. OFAC law in Colombia due to his ties with Colombian individuals. He asserted that this legislation did not apply in Colombian territory and that for it to do so, the country would need to change its Constitution through a Constituent Assembly. Petro said that OFAC had stopped focusing on drug traffickers and that, according to him, people opposed to the genocide in Gaza were included on its lists. He claimed that he was sanctioned for his speech before the UN and for asking for the formation of a United Nations army to defend Gaza, which would include the Colombian battalion deployed in Sinai to protect Palestinian children. He also accused the DEA of spending a year searching for and fabricating evidence regarding alleged links of his with drug trafficking. He said that drug traffickers whom he himself extradited, and who he claimed wanted to kill him, were the ones who believed those accusations. He maintained that Colombian drug trafficking had political influence, but that it was not found in progressivism, which, according to him, the narcos had pursued and attacked. Petro accused drug trafficking of supporting extreme right-wing ideas and stated that Colombian drug traffickers had access to the White House while poor farmers and people transporting small amounts of drugs through the Caribbean were being pursued. He added that drug traffickers with judicial agreements in the United States were moving shipments in submarines and had fleets of planes, and asserted that cocaine traveled in containers from companies of presidents who met with Donald Trump. Finally, Petro claimed that alias Fito contradicted journalist Vicky by saying he did not know him and that, instead, he was a friend and partner of the person who accused him. #Colombia #DerechosHumanos #JusticiaSocial (translated)

CLOSING: ANOTHER LONG NIGHT IN NATIONAL PALACE: Someone there tells me that there is "alert and a lot of concern" in the National Palace about the OFAC statement expected tomorrow, and that the SRE already has a press conference prepared; there are instructions for both the Chancellor and the Head of Finance to be "reachable" at all times, just like the prosecutor Ernestina Godoy. In the Palace, they are worried that it could be a statement from OFAC about: Andy and/or Amilcar Olán or some member of the Tabasco Group, or that it could be the FATF report placing us on the "grey" list and consequently some announcement from the Treasury related to "operations" with Mexican banks; the truth is that it will be another very long night in the Palace. #PalacioNacional #OFAC #alerta (translated)

🔴 AT THE MOMENT: TIME HAS RUN OUT FOR MARINA DEL PILAR; It is reported that after the USA published the OFAC list of individuals with ties to organized crime; and where the ex-husband of Marina del Pilar appears, the time ran out for the governor who did not reach any agreement and she will also be included since she still appears as a shareholder in some of the mentioned companies. Time has run out, and this is the final call for her who in the end will have to request a leave of absence. #MarinaDelPilar #CrimenOrganizado #Gobernanza (translated)

!Que canten los corruptos! Abelardo De La Espriella quiere destapar el Gobierno “corrupto y ladrón” de Petro. Que caigan todos. Vendrán más cancelaciones de Visas de EEUU para salpicados por escándalos de corrupción. La lista es larga. Ah, y más OFAC. https://t.co/ufJLOg5i6Q #Corrupción #Gobierno #Petro

Nicolás Petro le confesó a la Fiscalía que Euclides Torres, a través del entonces senador Pedro Flores financió la campaña de su papá. ¿Por qué la justicia no los ha tocado? Euclides ya se quedó si VISA de EEUU. ¿Viene OFAC? https://t.co/vff18Tv0qL #Justicia #Colombia #Corrupción

La seguridad del hemisferio tiene varias aristas en las que los gobiernos aliados trabajamos unidos por el bien de nuestros pueblos. La lucha contra la corrupción, cáncer de la Patria, es una bandera con la que estamos comprometidos los gobiernos de Colombia y de los Estados Unidos. Los inescrupulosos que defraudan al pueblo no pueden seguir disfrutando de sus pillajes, moviéndose libremente por el continente ni paseando con sus familias, mientras las sociedades a las que han desfalcado ven a sus niños sufrir desnutrición y falta de agua, y vivir en la miseria. La lucha apenas empieza; pronto se ampliará no solo en número, sino también en decisiones administrativas. La lista de la OFAC es otro camino para cerrarle la puerta a la impunidad y combatir la corrupción. ¡Firme por la Patria! ¡Que viva Cristo Rey! (A.D.L.E) 🇨🇴 🐅 #Seguridad #Corrupción #Colombia

En este momento están extraditando al gestor de paz de Petro, el narcotraficante alias araña. Es un traqueto al que Petro nombró gestor de paz, lo tenía alojado en el Marriott y cuando el CTI lo capturó intervino para que lo soltaran y le levantaran la órden de captura. Después suspendió su extradición. Y todavía hay gente que dice que la inclusión de Petro en la OFAC es “política”. #Colombia #Paz #Política

Ahora que ya no daré un discurso en la Asamblea de las Naciones Unidas, el último me metió en la OFAC, pero entre toda la humanidad logramos detener misiles, ahora se debería hablar de esto que dice el vídeo. Está en peligro toda la humanidad https://t.co/wiNXWMhJOk #ONU #PazMundial #Humanidad

Estos supuestos vecinos tienen que ser muy brutos para no leer en internet la traducción de la ley OFAC de los EEUU y no darse cuenta que solo es para personas de los EEUU. Colombia es soberana repitan, varias veces, así hayan votado por un presidente extranjero, deben saber que tienen que derribar la constitución, sus libertades y derechos para lograr que una ley de los EEUU rija para la ciudadanía colombiana. Yo reduje sustancialmente el deficit de vivienda cuantitativa y cualitativa de Colombia, enyregandonelnsubsidiondirectamentebalnusuario de vivienda y no al gran banquero y al gran constructor, y ahora un degenerado del fascio que se cree rico quiere impedirme vivir en Colombia, o tener casa, Imbécil y bruto además. Los verdaderos vecinos de Sierras del Moral deberían sentirse preocupado de tener un vecino así, peligroso para los hijos porque les puede enseñar a matar personas. El que busca matar derechos termina matando a las personas . Yo no he pensado vivir en Sierras del Moral. Ni he ido, ni la he visitado últimamente, ni quiero arriendan allí y menos comprar una casa hecha porque no me alcanza el dinero. Venderé la mía algún día y de lo que tenga derecho de esa casa haré otra de menos espacio porque ya mis hijos e hijas viven en otras partes y deben ser libres para vivir donde quieran. Al colegio que sacó a una menor de edad de estudiar porque pensaron que era mi hija o se relacionaba a mis ideas políticas debe caerle todo el peso de la ley. #Colombia #DerechosHumanos #Vivienda
