With less than 72 hours remaining in his administration, outgoing Colombian President Gustavo Petro has been accused by a congressman from the Cambio Radical party of allegedly plotting a coup d'état. The accusation comes in the final stretch of Petro's presidency leading up to the scheduled transition of power.
Simultaneously, preparations for the upcoming presidential transition are marked by a break from tradition. President-elect Abelardo de la Espriella will take office without participating in the customary pre-inauguration imposition of the Boyacá Order by the outgoing president. According to available reports, this omission stems from the distant relationship between Petro and the incoming president.
