WATCH: Colombia election analysis (JFC Online event)

Following Colombia’s presidential election runoff held on 21 June 2026, Justice for Colombia held an online meeting to discuss its implications.

The speakers were Colombian human rights lawyer Diego Martínez; JFC chair, TUC president and election observer Steve Gillan; and JFC director Victor Figueroa.

In the second round, far-right Abelardo de la Espriella was the provisonal winner by one percentage point over progressive candidate Iván Cepeda. De la Espriella’s victory was confirmed the day after this event.
