Protests erupt in Colombia as far-right set to win presidential election

Summary

Protests have erupted in Colombia against the election of the far-right candidate Abelardo de la Espriella. Though election officials have yet to formally announce a winner, with almost all of the votes counted, the pro-Trump lawyer and businessman is set to defeat his left-wing opponent Ivan Cepeda. Trailing behind by around 250 000 votes, the left-wing senator told supporters his team would be challenging results from tens of thousands of voting stations.
