Alpay: This was the first time that Pablo had been accused in public of being a drug trafficker. A few days later a newspaper in Bogota reported, also for the first time, that Pablo Escobar had been arrested for smuggling thirty-nine kilos in 1976. Pablo told me he was not surprised at any of this. "The people running this country don't want me to succeed. I'm a threat to the same politics. They're going to be against me because they're used to robbing and I'm going to transform the system. Everybody in Medellin knows that I have real estate businesses and that's how I get my money for politics. I love my country, and we want to make this country beautiful. I admire the United States, but I don't agree with the way they are doing politics here in Colombia."
