Liberal Senator Celeste Amarilla said that Cartismo leaders could move toward a stage of independence from Horacio Cartes, amid the ruling party’s internal dispute over the vice presidential candidacy for 2028 and the recent position taken by Vice President Pedro Alliana, according to Última Hora.

According to that outlet, Amarilla compared the situation of the Honor Colorado movement with an idea developed by Friedrich Nietzsche in Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Based on that reference, she argued that the loss of centrality of a leadership can open a stage of liberation for those who were subordinated to it.

In that context, she urged Cartismo members to carry out a “rebellion of the meek” and said that Honor Colorado could be going through the agony of its “God” or standing at the threshold of its independence and freedom.

Amarilla also said that, if that process advances, a new stage could open within the Colorado Party and, given the hegemonic weight of that force, also in Paraguay. Along those lines, she said that what happens inside Honor Colorado will have an impact on the ANR and on the country.
