Former Finance Minister José Manuel Restrepo defended the decision not to abruptly increase gasoline prices during his administration. He asserted that most fuel users are not wealthy, but rather workers and transporters, and that a 150% increase in less than a year would have caused food prices to rise by more than 100%, severely affecting Colombian households. #ElTiempo #Gasoline #Economy #Colombia #Restrepo #Fuels
