Colombia will hold its presidential runoff election on Sunday, pitting left-wing candidate Ivan Cepeda against far-right contender Abelardo de la Espriella. Cepeda is positioned as the successor to current President Gustavo Petro, representing a continuation of the current administration’s political direction. The election marks a crucial moment for the country, with a significant ideological divide between the two candidates. This second round follows an initial vote where no candidate secured a majority, leading to this decisive contest. Reporting on the election has been conducted by Rodrigo Sedano and Aitor Chavarri, with narration by Juliette Brown. The outcome will determine Colombia’s leadership and policy trajectory for the coming years.
