What is behind?

A very honest man

I would like to share with all those who would like to hear the opinions of a very honest man: José Mujica, the president of Uruguay.

What is clear is the strength of his convictions, his humility and the wisdom of his age.

I have tried to embed a video but it does not seem to work (?!).
