Mary Luz Herrán

Mary Luz Herrán is the ex-wife of Colombian President Gustavo Petro. Recently, she made headlines by vocally opposing the insinuations regarding her former husband's potential inclusion on the U.S. Treasury's Clinton List, a tool used to sanction individuals linked to drug trafficking and money laundering. Herrán criticized these claims as a 'desfachatez' (outrage) and suggested that they were part of a broader political attack orchestrated by extreme right factions against Petro's administration. She emphasized the importance of sovereignty and democracy in Colombia and called for a citizen mobilization in response to the political tensions.
