Colombia is holding the second and decisive round of its presidential election today. The contest pits left-wing candidate Iván Cepeda against right-wing candidate Abelardo de la Espriella. This election is widely considered one of the most important in Latin America this year, according to SVT’s Latin America correspondent, Tigran Feiler. The outcome will significantly shape the country’s future political direction. Polling stations are now closing as voting concludes. This runoff follows a first round of voting that narrowed the field to these two candidates. The results are keenly anticipated both domestically and internationally.
