Despite the fact that the death of the Minister of Defense, Carlos Holmes Trujillo, is very recent, names are already ringing to replace him.

Possible candidates began to emerge from the Nariño Palace. At this moment the portfolio is in charge of General Luis Fernando Navarro, the commander of the Military Forces.

This topic had been considered before, taking into account that Trujillo was going to resign because of his well-known aspirations for the Presidency of the Republic.

Among the names being considered are those of current national security adviser, Rafael Guarín, and Miguel Ceballos, peace adviser. The rattle has also buzzed with the appointment of Jorge Bedoya, president of the Society of Farmers.

However, the most optioned is Rafael Guarín, given that he was Vice Minister of Defense during the Uribe government and is from the first ring of advisers to President Duque. In addition, he has been queuing for a long time to be a minister.

The deck of names will continue to move despite the fact that President Duque does not want to name a successor for the time being to respect the mourning of the late Holmes Trujillo.
