Former President Álvaro Uribe Vélez did not let Francia Márquez's statements on private pension funds go unnoticed, to which, again, he left some criticism.
Through a post on his official Instagram account, where he has more than one million followers, the natural head of the Democratic Center differed from what was said by the vice-presidential formula of the candidate of the Historical Pact, Gustavo Petro.
The former senator, now under investigation for procedural fraud and witness manipulation, did not like those comments at all, who told the Afro leader that having fewer pensioners “is not corruption”; in fact, he even explained why his position would be wrong, according to him.
“Doña Francia, in a young system like that of funds, having fewer pensioners IS NOT CORRUPTION, the money is there in the individual account of each worker, with inflation yields plus 8, to guarantee the pension when they meet the requirements,” said Álvaro Uribe in his profile on the aforementioned social network.
Who were present? Rodrigo Lara Sánchez, vice-presidential formula of Fico Gutiérrez; Francia Márquez, vice-presidential formula of Gustavo Petro; Luis Gilberto Murillo, vice-presidential formula of Sergio Fajardo; José Luis Esparza, vice-presidential formula of Ingrid Betancourt; Marelen Castillo, Rodolfo's vice-presidential formula Hernández and Carlos Alberto Cuartas, vice-presidential formula of Enrique Gómez.
In the last days of this electoral campaign, one of the issues that has moved the most on the agenda is the pension system in the country. On this point, Francia Márquez assured that the resources of the pension system belong to those Colombians who have paid contributions. However, “the State has an obligation to protect those who fail to retire,” he said.
While Rodrigo Lara Sánchez, Federico Gutiérrez's formula, assured that pension savings belong exclusively to Colombians. On the subject, Luis Gilberto Murillo considered that the State serves as the guardian of Colombians' savings in pension funds. For this reason, they propose a basic income for those over 65 years of age. In turn, “incentives that concentrate inequality in pensions must be eliminated,” said Sergio Fajardo's formula.
Regarding the distribution of productive land for the country's peasants, the vice-presidential candidates had very divided opinions. José Luis Esparza, Ingrid Betancourt's formula, believes that there should be taxes on unproductive land. “There must also be a certification process and stop expanding the agricultural frontier for drug trafficking purposes,” he said in the debate.
According to Marelen Castillo, second by Rodolfo Hernández, land that is untitled must be legalized. At the same time, to make illicit crops productive. For his part, Enrique Gómez's campaign partner, Carlos Cuartas, believes that in order to recover the countryside in Colombia it is important that farmers return to the countryside after being displaced to large cities.
At this point, Francia Márquez believes that it is vital to give guarantees to the countryside in Colombia. For her, the distribution of hectares of land agreed in the Peace Agreement is important. “We need tertiary roads, because there is no point in having a piece of land if you can't get the products out.”
