Together or mixed up

Together or mixed up

If you look at Venezuela and Colombia on a map, you will know that in the long run, it will be impossible to avoid the multiple opportunities that their integration would offer, so it is clear that either the two countries unite, or one of the two grabs the other, or Someone will bring them together... in a macho way, under the umbrella of their own geopolitical interests. What do you prefer?

Contemplate how European countries, with all their differences, linguistic ones being the least, today, less than sixty years after the war, subordinate themselves to a political-economic community and are drafting a common constitution, with the humble purpose of trying to maintain its level of development, serves to highlight the smallness of our political leaders in Colombia and Venezuela, yesterday and today

Both countries are doing badly, very badly indeed, but instead of seeking to capitalize on the possibilities of a true union of markets, which would allow us to recover that lost direction that has never been found, our leaders, if they can be classified as such, are rather dedicated to feed and fuel tensions, hiding their own inadequacies.

It is not easy to design a plan in today's world that simultaneously feeds a people hungry for dreams and inspires the credibility that the markets demand. Committing ourselves fully to integration and beginning it by establishing a consistent monetary, exchange and trade policy must be one of the main components of any plan capable of offering us a better future.

How do we do it? I wish I knew, but I confess that I have no idea... except to know that it requires leadership capable of subordinating the little things of today to the greatness of tomorrow, which would seem very difficult to achieve in a world where the growing demands of our peoples for immediate gratification, are surpassed by those of the majority of our politicians.

However, and because every crisis means an opportunity...if we think about the size of the crisis that our countries are experiencing, who knows if suddenly, when so many material needs have been combined with so many spiritual needs, the conditions will finally be met. so that we can wake up from our lethargy and fulfill that historic mandate of achieving a Great Union.

Of course, there is always the fourth alternative, the worst between brothers, that a new bipolar world emerges with a great Colombian-Venezuelan wall as a border.
