À propos de cette vidéo

On Sunday 21 June, Colombia will elect a new president. A Donald Trump-endorsed outsider, Abelardo de la Espriella, nicknamed The Tiger, is now ahead in the polls, and within striking distance of the presidency. His platform promises a military crackdown on narcoterrorism and closer collaboration with the United States. Many Latin American nations have shifted to the right in recent elections, and the Colombia vote is seen as a crucial litmus test for the wider region’s political landscape. Could Colombia be the next country in Latin America take a hard turn to the right? And how might that benefit US President Donald Trump? Asma Khalid and Tristan Redman from The Global Story speak to BBC South America correspondent, Ione Wells.
