Controversy over Colombian Minister of Housing's trip during emergency

The Minister of Housing of Colombia, Jaime Andrés Beltrán, is under pressure to resign following a trip to Santa Marta that took place during the emergency caused by the earthquake affecting the country. As the nation mourns the loss of life, figures from both the government and politics have labeled the trip as "callous" and a lack of judgment in the face of the crisis.

Beltrán defended his trip, clarifying that it was not a vacation, but rather a time to be with his family, and that he continued to work during that time. However, many argue that his presence at the beach was inappropriate given the circumstances.

The situation has sparked intense debate in public opinion, where the sense of responsibility and the conduct of public officials during emergencies are being questioned. Pressure for action against the minister may increase in the coming days.
