保守派领导人阿贝拉多·德拉埃斯皮亚将于周五在哥伦比亚宣誓就职,任期四年[1]。即将卸任的总统古斯塔沃·彼得罗仍在坚持声称6月份的总统选举存在舞弊现象,声称选票数据遭到篡改[1]。德拉埃斯皮亚以25万票的优势战胜了彼得罗的盟友伊万·塞佩达[1]。
彼得罗对这一选举结果提出了强烈质疑。他表示"我们面临深层制度问题",并指这次就职典礼代表"非法总统的上台"[1]。然而,这些舞弊指控已被国际观察员和哥伦比亚选举当局驳回[1]。选举当局在6月下旬宣布德拉埃斯皮亚获胜[1]。塞佩达表示将组织一系列抗议活动[1]。
Conservative leader Abelardo de la Espriella is set to be sworn in as Colombia's president on Friday for a four-year term [1]. The inauguration comes as outgoing President Gustavo Petro continues to assert that the June election was marred by fraud, claiming that ballot data were altered by programmers [1]. These allegations have been dismissed by international observers and Colombia's electoral authorities [1].
De la Espriella defeated Petro's ally Ivan Sepeda by a margin of 250,000 votes, with electoral officials announcing his victory in late June [1]. Despite the electoral authority's certification and international validation of the results, Petro has stated that "we face deep institutional problems" and described the upcoming inauguration as that of an "illegal president" [1]. Sepeda has indicated plans to organize a series of protest activities [1].
