#colombia #elections #presidentialrace
The rich who own businesses that employ many people will leave Colombia so where will these unemployed poor people work ?
Another Venezuela another wonderful country destroyed
Colombia is in for a big ride, leftists leaders are at odds with foreign investment and they tend to nationalize many industries, an example is Mexico's Obrador, the man has nationalized the mining of lithium and he is increasingly condemning foreign companies including American companies, which is stupid considering the US is Mexico's biggest trading partner. Leftist leaders also are the worst to propose ideas against crime, they don't see crime as an actual social problem
It seems very deliberate to me that no one wants mention the historic election of the first black woman vice president of Colombia. The main stream media sucks
Colombias leftist madness, revolving door of crazy maniacs. Fall in to Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Bolivia Marxist leninst stupid madness revisit in South america, where are you marching towards Cocain kingdom of hyper hipos. Don't blame to u.s.You stupid idiots. I guarantee very soon Colombia will feel the pain in your ass.Dont depend on u.s. Land of the free and the brave.Hell with Cocaine republic.
Colombia will look like Venezuela if they don't get this crook out.
His agenda is to raise taxes on oligarchs, nationalize resources and expand social programs. He's made an enemy of US imperialists by doing that, and that's a good thing. Conservative ABC is freaking out, because what conservatives do is protect oligarchs from taxation, control foreign resources and promote the corporate agenda. People there are understandably tired of right wing rule.
Same race as USA
Quick question, why isn't the news abt Rising gas prices, inflation, crime, corruption and socialist takeover being covered by this channel?!? ðŸ¤â€Â
I therefore happily joined Sky News Australia for real news and btw I'm a Democrat
Columbia only good for cocaine, everything else is worthless.
Democracy truly is flawed. Just next door in Venezuela we saw what leftists policies do and they vote for it again
CONGRATULATIONS COLOMBIA 🇨🇴
Sounds like they used the same voting machines that we used here. Congratulations to the new president. I'm sure your base of dead voters won't be disappointed.
200 years on the power by the Colombias Oligarchs and see the results, Petro is a Dr. In Economics a Men that cares of his People. Great for Colombia for the 90% of the Colombians.
Lmfao that country is fucked more leftist bullshit
Anyway like him or hate him, the election is done. We will have to sit and watch what happens and hope that Petro doesn't betray his voters and the Colombian people. There is no point in wasting time and energy on what has happened. Going forward we must work to united and work for a better tomorrow given the cards that are dealt to us. Such is life.
The Countdown has started …chao parces.
Personally I'm not a leftist but I wish the best for Petro, it seems he actually cares about his people
Fking European rulers…
The CIA will send in operatives to overthrow Petro. Remember I predict this on 6/20.2022.
I have a lot of respect for Petro, Colombia needs change.
A better question is –
How does the failure of Justice to rein in a criminal conspiracy and an attack on America's Capital, affect politics across the globe?
A resurgence of right wing reactionary forces is the obvious result.
Trump is still succeeding in his mission to undermine America and it's Constitution and spread chaos across the globe.
Thanks DOJ!
Thanks Republicans!
Thanks Infotainment!
Thanks Federal Reserve!
Putin is smiling…
Gone with the Wind, those good old days.

Gustavo Petro won election today. That he is the first leftist president in Columbia's history comes as a surprise to me
They will be the same, leach of America blah blah blah…
Congratulations to Colombia. First leftist who actually cares about the people has beaten the odds.
The relation with the us?? Thats the idea ppl are tired of 😒 colombia like every other nation in the region is sovereign. What interests the us has should not be above the needs of the ppl of each nation.
Jesus Christ saves from sin.
Romans 3: 23
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Hebrews 9: 27
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Isaiah 64: 6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Revelation 21: 8
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Romans 5: 8
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
John 3: 16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 14: 6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Romans 10: 9-10.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Jesus said John 5: 24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
1John 5: 10-13
He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God..
Ephesians 2: 8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Romans 8: 1
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
1 Corinthians 15: 3-4
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
2 Corinthians 5: 21
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him..
