Salutul nazist folosit de Președintele Columbiei, înaintea alegerilor prezidențiale, a stârnit reacții dure pe plan internațional. Ambasadorul Israelului la ONU: „Cereți-vă scuze”

Colombian President Gustavo Petro sparked international outrage after posting 'Heil Hitler' on platform X, just days before the presidential election. The post was a response to a critical article about his government. Israel's UN ambassador condemned the message, calling it shameful and demanding an apology. This incident occurs amid already strained relations between Colombia and Israel, exacerbated by Petro's past criticisms of the Israeli state. Observers note that Petro has a history of using Nazi comparisons in political discourse, which critics argue undermines public debate and increases political polarization.
