# Translation The activities of President Gustavo Petro in Panama in June 2024 could be far from being a matter of his private life. An investigation by La Silla Vacía looked into his connection with Vanessa Cortés Carmona, a woman from Manizales who would maintain a close relationship with the president and whose assets grew rapidly since the beginning of the Government that ends next August. The story began to draw attention about two years ago when the president was seen and captured in photographs and videos walking in Panama City with a woman whose identity was unknown.
