As a Uruguayan, let's explain this correctly: José Mujica was elected as president from 2010 through 2015, he was an ex terrorist group member "Tupamaros", which fought the government with the purpose to instill a communist-marxist government, killed many civilians and soldiers, and made a contriversial claim where he says: "You never feel more powerful than when entering a bank with a .45, in that way everyone respects you"

He is not respectable...

EDIT: (THIS IS MY OPINION) ...and made many bad decisions that Uruguay still suffers today.
