Gustavo Petro has turned this Tuesday the inauguration of three high-ranking officials in his Government into an exercise in reflection on power. The president, sometimes, likes to theorize and display the conclusions he has reached after his 30 years of public service.

Petro is prone to these dissertations, there is something of a pedagogue in him. Some pass him off as a dilettante. His work team justifies his delays in appointments by these digressions in which he embarks with his interlocutors.
