The former colombian president Belisario Betancur (1982-1986) passed away today at the age of 95 years at the Clinic in Santa Fe de Bogotá, where he had been admitted in the last few hours to be treated of a kidney disease.
The announcement was made by the vice-president of colombia, Marta Lucia Ramirez, who wrote on Twitter: “RIP (rest in peace) the former president Belisario Betancur. His life, his work, his love for Colombia, his intellectual curiosity insatiable, his greatness as a public man, and in the retreat, are an example of the duty to be”.
