Speaking of security, the Sussexes’ visit has seen an impressive display of protective measures. The streets have been lined with police cars and armed soldiers, creating a fortified perimeter around the Duke and Duchess.
Local residents have been forced to navigate roadblocks and endure lengthy detours just to reach their homes.
This heightened security is partly due to threats against their host, Ms. Márquez, further complicating the visit.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent tour of Colombia has been met with significant backlash, underscoring local dissatisfaction with their visit.
Many Colombians feel that the couple’s high-profile presence detracts from the country’s pressing issues, leading to noticeable booing and heckling from the public.
Critics argue that the visit serves more to enhance the couple’s public image rather than address substantive concerns or provide meaningful support to Colombia.
The invitation from Colombian Vice President Francia Marquez has faced intense scrutiny on social media.
Critics question the appropriateness of inviting the Sussexes, suggesting that their celebrity status overshadows the serious challenges facing the nation.
The visit’s security measures have been another point of contention.
Concerns about drug-related violence and kidnapping risks in Colombia have necessitated an extensive security presence.
Critics argue that the couple’s public engagements, which include working with various organizations to promote positive online environments, appear to be more about self-promotion than genuine concern for safety or making a real impact.
This has led to a perception that their actions are more about bolstering their own image rather than contributing meaningfully to the issues at hand.
