“We are at a decisive moment. We must go further than autonomy, and instead move towards sovereignty.” This was expressed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, José Manuel Albares, on the occasion of the first day of the Annual Meeting of the Cercle d’Economia.

“Prison or death,” repeated over and over in his rallies Abelardo de la Espriella, a controversial 47-year-old lawyer, to refer to the fate that awaits criminals, drug traffickers, and guerrillas if he ends up being the next president of Colombia.
