Attorney general calls for clear elections in Cartagena

The Attorney General of the Nation, Gregorio Eljach Pacheco, visited the Universidad de Cartagena to promote his Paz Electoral strategy, aiming to ensure free, transparent, and secure electoral processes. He invited administrators, teachers, and students to join this initiative defending democracy. He stressed the need for elections without any doubts about their transparency.

During his visit to the Universidad de Cartagena, Attorney General Gregorio Eljach Pacheco met with rector William Malkún and shared details of the Paz Electoral strategy. This initiative aims to make elections free, transparent, secure, and to respect the results at the polls. Eljach Pacheco stated: “the elections have to be clear and there can be no doubt” regarding the process's transparency.

He explained that Paz Electoral is a communication campaign aimed at Colombians to remind them that they must defend democracy, as elections belong to the citizens and not to political parties. Additionally, he noted that next Wednesday he will participate in a review of the technology used for collecting and transmitting electoral data, along with the National Registrar and international organizations.

At the end of his speech, Eljach Pacheco encouraged citizen participation and called to combat abstention. “Let's go vote freely for whoever we want, there are conditions, let's go vote”, he emphasized, inviting all Colombians to exercise their right to vote.
