Colombia's vote may reshape the Amazon's future as political winds shift across Latin America

Colombia's election of Abelardo de la Espriella, endorsed by Donald Trump, alongside Peru's potential election of Keiko Fujimori and Brazil's possible rightward shift, raises concerns about economic development policies in the Amazon. De la Espriella's pro-oil and fracking stance contrasts with outgoing President Petro's environmental focus, potentially impacting rainforest conservation efforts.
