No server has privileges: Aerocivil on Gabriela Muñoz

The Colombian civil aviation authority, Aerocivil, has denied allegations that any of its public servants have privileges under the law or oversight institutions, responding to claims that Gabriela Muñoz, a woman accused by Angie Rodríguez of being part of a 'network of women' influencing President Gustavo Petro’s administration, holds undue influence within the agency. The accusations include managing biased contracts, favoring relatives, and failing to disclose potential conflicts of interest. President Petro has defended Gabriela, while she has announced criminal complaints. Aerocivil stated it would fully cooperate with the Ministry of Transportation’s request for transparency in procurement processes but had yet to receive the requested information. Investigations suggest that Gabriela’s family, including her brother and cousins, were involved in contracts between 2025 and 2026, with some contracts linked to the appointment of the agency’s director. Gabriela’s mother, Liliana Olaya, previously worked as coordinator of counterintelligence at the National Intelligence Directorate (DNI), which was under the leadership of now-prosecuted director Jorge Lemus. She reportedly helped荐

Senate approves moving Congress to Cauca for Abelardo's inauguration

The Colombian Senate approved a proposal with 55 votes in favor and 32 against, authorizing Congress to relocate to the Cauca region for the presidential inauguration of Abelardo de la Espriella on August 7. The proposal was presented by Senator Enrique Gómez of the Salvación Nacional party, who stated that the specific location would be negotiated between Congress and the elected government. During the debate, other proposals were discussed: one from the Pacto Histórico called for the inauguration in Bogotá, while another, led by Senator Isabel Zuleta of the same coalition, argued against the inauguration altogether due to legal challenges. Additionally, Senator Jennifer Pedraza proposed that the inauguration should take place in a civilian space rather than a military base, but her proposal did not receive enough support to be voted on. The relocation still requires approval from both chambers of Congress.

It's not just Argentines who have a hard time losing: Enrique Gómez charges against Rafael Nieto after mentioning dictators who have taken possession of military installations

The article discusses a debate between Colombian politicians Rafael Nieto Loaiza and Enrique Gómez regarding the location of President-elect Abelardo De La Espriella's inauguration. Nieto, representing the Centro Democrático party, criticizes the choice of holding the swearing-in ceremony at a military base, arguing it sends a negative message internationally and perpetuates a tradition associated with past authoritarian leaders. He suggests the ceremony should take place in a civilian venue after the president-elect formally takes office before Congress. In response, Gómez, aligned with the Movimiento de Salvación Nacional and close to De La Espriella, dismisses Nieto's concerns as politically motivated, pointing out that military parades are common nationwide and that the real issue lies with the involvement of certain political allies with the Office of Envigado.

The president of the Senate, Honorio Henríquez of the Center Democratic Party, has called for a meeting between former presidents and leaders of political parties to address recent disagreements during Colombia's national transition process and the renewal of Congress. Henríquez invited Álvaro Uribe, the leader of his party, outgoing President Gustavo Petro, and incoming President Abelardo De La Espriella, who will take office on August 7. Henríquez stated that despite differences, Colombians expect solutions and expressed a desire to meet with all three leaders—supporting De La Espriella, opposing Petro, and respecting Uribe as his mentor. The transition at the presidential palace has caused disputes within the right wing between the uribismo faction and those aligned with De La Espriella, leading to a decision by both incoming and outgoing administrations not to overlap their operations.

Prosecutor calls Juliana Guerrero to trial for alleged false titles

The Colombian Attorney General's Office has scheduled a hearing on August 5th to charge Juliana Guerrero and former secretary of the San Jose Foundation, Luis Carlos Gutiérrez, with alleged procedural fraud and ideological falsehood in public documents. The investigation focuses on potential irregularities regarding Guerrero’s claimed accounting degree from the San Jose Foundation, which she used to qualify for the position of deputy minister of Youth at the Ministry of Equality. Initially, Guerrero's resume listed her as having only a technical accounting qualification, but later updated it to show a professional accounting degree from the same foundation. According to the Attorney General's Office, Guerrero did not meet the requirements to graduate and had not submitted the required Saber Pro tests mandated by Icfes. The investigation claims Guerrero knowingly included false information in her resume to deceive the Ministry of Equality. The hearing will take place two days before President Gustavo Petro leaves office, and the president has publicly stated that there is no evidence Guerrero did not study and that she was never a public official.
