One week after the assassination of Mehdi Kessaci in Marseille, Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez and Justice Minister Gérald Darmanin visited the city on November 20, 2025. They stated that narcotraffic poses a threat at least equivalent to terrorism and pledged to bolster judicial resources. The event aims to address the shock from this alleged intimidation crime against anti-drug efforts.
Arauca Chamber representative Lina Garrido sharply criticized President Gustavo Petro in an interview with LA NACIÓN, calling him a liar, traitor, incoherent, hypocrite, and cynic, and accusing him of being a narcotraffic ally. Garrido defended her remarks about Donald Trump and warned of guerrilla threats against her. She expressed hope for a government change in Colombia after the August elections.
