For this reason, the 69-year-old communicator and journalist revealed that the response from the authorities clearly took him by surprise, but in the end, the negative was that he could not travel to be in the draw. All of this happened, according to the journalist, because in order to travel he needed to apply for a category I US visa for his reporting work, since they told him that the tourist type or any other visa was not suitable for him.

The most unusual thing of all happened to me, in fact, all morning I have been doing paperwork. I appeared as a member of the FARC, how do you think? This is a joke, I don't know if it's a homonym. I had to write a letter for the peace commissioner's office to deliver to the embassy, Javier said on the sports radio program.
