Colombia news - Luis Carlos Sarmiento

Colombia’s richest businessman has spoken out in support of President
Alvaro Uribe, saying he should be given time to decide whether he will
run for re-election.

He said that the situation in Colombia has improved under Uribe and that the country has seen important changes in the economy, defense and development.
