A new controversy muddies the Historical Pact this May 31, this time, by an image that shows a scene involving Senators Roy Barreras and Armando Benedetti in full discussion in the Congress of the Republic. The fact is being the center of criticism and opponents of the leftist movement are taking the opportunity to point fingers at politicians.
In the images, which are already viral on social networks, you can see Barreras point the finger at Benedetti as if sentencing him. And in another photo, Benedetti is seen cornered against the wall, while Barreras is holding him by the shirt.
Although there has been talk of an argument, Senator Barreras’ press team spoke with INFOBAE COLOMBIAand assured that it was not a fight. On the contrary, he maintains that between the two politicians “there is a very good relationship” and it is all a misunderstanding.

“They were simply talking in the middle of a session of the First Committee of the Senate this morning. The two of them have a good relationship,” said the Barreras press team.
When asked about the photo in which Barreras apparently grabs Benedetti by the shirt, the press team maintains that “it seems“, but that it is not reality.
< p class=”paragraph”>There are citizens who trust this version, and even defend it. They point out that Benedetti’s attitude in the images shows calm and not defense, so they do not believe it was a fight.
“Hands in your pockets, you are not being attacked, hands up, ready to defend. Easy. Just look at attitude”,Twitter user @ClaraIBautista argued.
Despite the clarifications and the defenders of politicians on networks, the scene is already being criticized. Its opponents have pointed out that this is “the way of acting” of the sector.
“Non-verbal language of the Historical Pact. The two spearheads of the renewal, Roy Barreras and Armando Benedetti, the exuribistas and exsantistas what are they up to. Please tell us”, questioned the journalist Lucía Bastidas Ubate.
“The Uribistas Roy Barreras and Armando Benedetti, desperate, know they are going to lose, their arrival did not bring votes to the hysterical pact, only discredit and repudiation”, @RodriAguaclara< /p>
“Only the kind of people in the historical pact remains in evidence, and I say people because if I say politicians we already know what kind of rodents they are. And obviously the ship is sinking and obviously the boss knows it’s because of the two of them” @adnarquitectur1
Likewise, memes are being created from the images. The journalist Gustavo Gómez even published the photo and asked his followers to give it a title. Among the responses he received is that of Senator Barreras himself.
“Dialogue: Roy: “If you don’t listen to Caracol Radio every morning I’ll shave you!” Benedetti: “Take a picture, no one shaves me! I’m going to shave myself on the day of Petro’s inauguration!”, the senator wrote on Twitter.
