Colombian President Gustavo Petro Faces Backlash Over 2024 Panama Video With Transgender Newscaster Linda Yepes
Colombian President Gustavo Petro is facing controversy after a video resurfaced showing him holding hands with Linda Yepes, a transgender newscaster, during a visit to Panama in 2024. The video has led to allegations of infidelity, as Petro has been married to philanthropist Veronica Alcocer since 2000. Petro has denied being gay and accused critics of spreading transphobia, stating in July 2024 that privacy is a fundamental aspect of freedom. The controversy emerged amid a tariff dispute between Colombia and the United States, initiated after Colombia initially refused to accept deported migrants on U.S. military planes. However, Colombia later conceded to U.S. demands, avoiding the imposition of tariffs. The resurfaced video has sparked public outrage in conservative Colombia, with accusations of misuse of public funds and criticism of Petro’s leadership.
