Colombia’s vice president’s luxurious life as she talks about ending privilege

Francia Márquez, Gustavo Petro’s vice-president, does not hide her desire to impose in Colombia the Castro model, which has caused misery and death in Cuba.

At the same time, as the Cuban rulers, she surrounds herself with luxury and opulence.

In a visit he made a few days ago to Cuba for the Book Fair in Havana, Marquez praised the Castro system and confessed that this is what he wants for his country:

“I believe that the experience you have had in the health system, getting the best Cuban doctors trained in Cuba, is part of the experience and the path of what we need in Colombia”.

Then, on Cuban television, she added:

“We are proposing a health reform where the State once again manages health; of course, this will not be very easy”.

“It means taking the business away from the elites, from the private sectors that have turned health into a commodity”.

It is frightening that, at this point, when the brutal and enslaving nature of the Cuban regime has been more than demonstrated, a high-ranking official of a country dares to propose the importation of the same system.

It is not surprising, of course, coming from Francia Marquez, a Marxist fundamentalist with a deep resentment against Colombia’s middle and upper classes.

Only the most exaggerated hatred could motivate her to flirt with Cuban torture practices, which, if applied, would devastate the entire Colombian middle class.

There would not even be a hint of prosperity left, as it happened in Venezuela, where the Castroist script was applied to the letter.

There would be no legitimate prosperity because some would fill their pockets.

Francia Márquez is already doing so.

Although she always determined her speech by her condition as a victim due to her humble and mistreated origins, today, Marquez lives in a luxurious residence in Dapa, a sector near Cali where rich people live.

These days, she arrives at her home in a Black Hawk helicopter, which costs the nation more than US$8,000 per hour of flight.

She is the first black woman and environmentalist who can only fly to her mansion in a helicopter that costs thousands of dollars.

Marquez accompanied Petro to Nariño because his narrative suited her.

From impoverished origins, she vindicated the marginalized proletarian, whom she calls “nobody”.

Her government would be the government of the “nobodies”; of the poor against the elites.

But as happened with those who surrounded Fidel Castro in January 1959, she is already elite.

And, from her elitist mansion in Dapa, she intends to impose a model that will tear away what the rest of the people once had.
