During his first speech at the General Assembly as the President of Colombia, Gustavo Petro said that the world's addiction to money, oil and carbon is destroying the rainforest and its people under the excuse of a "Hypocritical" war against drugs.

Mr. Petro highlighted that while the developed world let the rainforest burn as an excuse for the war against drugs, it also asked for more oil, "To calm their other addiction" to consumption, power and money.

Mr. Petro then demanded, speaking in the name of all of Latin-America, the end of the "Irrational war against drugs".
