Our Editor-in-Chief at Gateway Hispanic, María Herrera Mellado, carried out an unique interview with María Fernanda Cabal, Colombia’s most voted senator and potential first feminine president, throughout CPAC Mexico 2024.

María Herrera: María Fernanda, it’s a pleasure to have you ever right here once more at CPAC. How are you feeling?

M. Fernanda: I’m doing properly. Very properly and fairly comfortable.

María Herrera: We’re thrilled to have you ever again in Mexico. We heard Texas Senator Ted Cruz communicate in regards to the significance of exposing Maduro and the fraud in Venezuela. Why do you assume Petro in Colombia or Boric in Chile at the moment are questioning Maduro’s legitimacy, regardless of having been allies till not too long ago?

M. Fernanda: Nicely, Boric may be a bit extra sincere than Petro. Petro, alternatively, has a extra legal background. That is merely a matter of adapting to the scenario, notably to the U.S. sanctions. You may’t simply declare the whole lot was fantastic. Apart from, Petro himself used fraudulent ways internally, however towards a weak authorities just like the earlier one below President Duque to grab energy. So, it’s inconsistent to help freedom in Venezuela whereas backing the repression of youth protests in Colombia, which have been funded by drug cash to destroy standard cities. Petro has no alternative however to placed on a facade now, however on the finish of the day, he stays a good friend and associate of Maduro, who helped him win the election.

María Herrera: Understood. Santiago Abascal in Spain has said that he’ll launch the most important offensive in Europe to reveal Maduro’s tyranny and is looking for allies. What’s your stance? I do know you’re a part of the Madrid Discussion board group and signed the letter. What’s your place? What ought to Colombia’s stance be relating to the European Union within the struggle towards the advance of Twenty first-century socialism within the area?

M. Fernanda: The problem is that we’ve to do that from inside the political events as a result of, in our case, we’ve a far-left authorities in Colombia, an anarchist authorities led by an expert anarchist. We should take the offensive from assume tanks and civil society, which is usually watching as societies that after prided themselves on being civilized and free fall into tyranny’s fingers. Why are we so cowardly within the West? We see what’s occurring proper earlier than our eyes, enable the worst to occur, and don’t confront tyrannies like Maduro’s with the rigor they deserve. If we proceed like this, we are going to find yourself taking part in the function of Neville Chamberlain in World Conflict II, virtually exposing the survival of England and the remainder of Europe to Nazi Germany.

María Herrera: Final query, María Fernanda. Kamala Harris was simply nominated by the Democratic Social gathering. She helps insurance policies which have already devastated nations like Colombia, Venezuela, and Cuba, however she is a lady who identifies as Black, though she was beforehand recognized as Indian. Why are girls supporting and voting for figures like Kamala Harris, Claudia Sheinbaum, and different puppets, as you name them, of the Puebla Group and the São Paulo Discussion board, who don’t symbolize values like life and freedom? Why are girls freely giving their votes in these nations?

M. Fernanda: As a result of we’ve made many errors, amongst them not realizing easy methods to talk successfully. We maintain the reality and defend what we imagine is morally proper, however some are afraid to talk out, and others talk so poorly or at such size that folks don’t perceive. The left excels in propaganda, in spreading lies, however they succeed by waving the banners of simply causes solely to pervert them. That’s why they management causes like girls’s rights, environmentalism, animal rights, and LGBTQ points. They personal the whole lot that society considers delicate, and any dissenting opinion is attacked. However ultimately, all they care about is energy, and they’ll finally persecute everybody, together with those that don’t share their concepts. Propaganda and communication, María—we have to learn to talk with out mendacity, however in a manner that appeals to at the moment’s viewers with quick, highly effective, and visually beautiful messages. Society has stopped studying; now it’s all about messages not than 20 seconds. Younger folks will flip off their telephones if it takes longer, saying, «Let’s watch one thing else.» We lack the brilliance they’ve in creating propaganda and communication to point out people who what they’re saying is fake.

María Herrera: Would you be a really totally different candidate for Colombia’s presidency in comparison with Claudia Sheinbaum and Kamala Harris?

M. Fernanda: Completely. I don’t like being acknowledged in my function simply because I’m a lady—I discover that worrying. I imagine advantage must be the important thing think about any appointment. However that’s not the way it works. Right here, it’s all about sexual orientation, pores and skin shade, all with that false leftist sensitivity. However the ones that suffer are those that obtain this sort of public coverage design. You wouldn’t put an incompetent, a slacker, or a liar in a administration place. You wouldn’t rent a thief or a slacker in your organization, but they offer us thieves and slackers in authorities roles.

María Herrera: Thanks a lot to your time.

M. Fernanda: Thanks.
