Petro Questions Council of State's Pension Decision and Calls on People to Defend Their Rights

TL;DR

President Petro asserts that the Council of State's decision "ends the right to a pension" and "must not be permitted by the working people."
Petro described the decision as "unconstitutional" and a "coup d'état against the constituent and sovereign people."
He linked the pension discussion to the interests of major economic groups, specifically mentioning Luis Carlos Sarmiento and the Grupo Empresarial Antioqueño.
The Minister of Labor, Antonio Sanguino, stated the decision could affect people whose pensions were already recognized by Colpensiones.
Sanguino argued that it is illogical for the state to continue paying pensions while private funds hold the workers' resources.
Both Petro and Sanguino emphasized that workers' pension rights and the sustainability of the public system should prevail over financial capital interests.
