The confrontation between both politicians brought out forceful assertions by Bolívar, who assured: “neither my grandfather was a violator of human rights, nor have I had a single contract with the State,” attempting to completely distance himself from any accusation of corruption or embezzlement of funds. money. In addition, he made reference to his career as a writer, which, according to him, has allowed him to make great savings.
