Learn about the mobilizations that will take place in the main cities of the country this February 15.

 

 

For this February 15, a day of demonstrations has been called against the reforms proposed by the Government of Gustavo Petro. It is expected that various political sectors, economic unions and citizens, who wish to express their opposition, will take to the streets of the main cities of the country. This set of protests has been called the "counter-march" on social media.

After the days held this February 14 in support of the reforms, the main voices detracting from Gustavo Petro confirmed that they will take to the streets to demonstrate this February 15. They want to show their opposition to the Development Plan and labor, health and pension reforms. These reforms were presented by the President during the day that took place in the Plaza de Armas.

The calls have been led by politicians from right-wing parties such as the Democratic Center. In their social networks they have made calls to mobilize against the "Petroreformas" as the representative to the chamber, Miguel Polo Polo, called them. For her part, María Fernanda Cabal has also summoned her followers “This Wednesday, February 15, we are going to march against the absurd decisions of the anarchist government of Gustavo Petro, such as those of Minister Corcho, who seeks to burst the health system by putting in risk the lives of Colombians" published the senator on her twitter.
