TL;DR Summary
Colombia votes in a presidential election that could redefine its relationship with the United States, with leftist Iván Cepeda leading and pledging to continue Petro's peace-style approach, while right‑wing candidates promise a tougher crackdown and closer US security ties; a runoff is expected on June 21 as none appear poised for an outright win, amid ongoing violence and tensions over drug trafficking and foreign policy.
