According to the article, Pedro Vaca Villarreal, former director of the Fundación para la Libertad de Prensa (FLIP) and rapporteur for the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (CIDH), spoke bluntly with Gustavo Petro, the President of Colombia. He urged Petro to respect the press in the country.

Vaca Villarreal emphasized the importance of the president's role in ensuring the freedom of the press, stating that it is essential for a healthy democracy. He also highlighted the need for the government to prioritize the protection of journalists and media workers who face threats and attacks.

It seems that Vaca Villarreal's remarks were a response to concerns about the current state of press freedom in Colombia, particularly with regards to the treatment of journalists by the government and other actors. By speaking out against any attempts to silence or intimidate the press, Vaca Villarreal is helping to promote a culture of transparency and accountability in Colombia.
