CHARGES:
Drug trafficking, murder, paramilitarism, exploitation,
usurption, robbery and corruption, among
others.
Born July 4, 1952
(curiously, U.S. Independence Day).
His father, Álvaro Uribe Vélez
Sierra, was a drug trafficker who was jailed to be
extradited in 1982, when Álvaro Jr. was 30 years old and
manager of Civil Aeronautics of Colombia, a post from
which he was removed in humiliation for having issued
pilot’s licences to members of the Medellín drug cartel,
allowing them to fly large quantities of cocaine out of
Colombia.
In 1983 he became Mayor of
Medellín and once again was removed, due to the services
he rendered to his boss at that time, Pablo Escobar
Gaviria.
He was Governor of
Antioquia Department (luckily for him, he was not kicked
out). As Governor, he pushed organization of the
CONVIVIR ‘Community Associations’, the project of which
reflects his peculiar political conception. The CONVIVIR
were corner stones for the murder and repression of the
campesino and working classes of our Colombia. They were
also the base for developing paramilitarism.
Álvaro Uribe Vélez is searched
The damage was done: AUV
and the AUC, brothers that are bleeding Colombia. His
‘community’ project received a boost when he was named a
senator. He was awarded the prize of ‘Star Senator’ (we
kid you not!) and ‘Senator of the Year’. He pushed the
following laws:
Law 50/90, the Labour Law
Reform that made possible: - Stripping Colombian
workers of the protection and benefits they had
won. - Elimination of the right to strike in the
public services entities. - The criminalization of
popular protest. - The increase of the workers’ hours
of labour. - The boom in temporary businesses and
employment - And the creation of the Pension Funds in
order to deprive the workers of their retirement
payments.
Law 100/93, the Social
Security System Law. By this law the State allowed the
monopolistic groups to take control of the affiliates of
the Pension Funds, thus causing the bankruptcy of the
Social Security Institution (ISS), with terrible
consequences for the people in general. . These
are some of the antecedents of the Colombian oligarchy’s
president.
Can this be the
representative of the Colombian
people?
