Abelardo de la Espriella, who is poised to become Colombia\u2019s next president, is forging<\/a><\/span> deep institutional connections with Europe\u2019s far-right political parties.<\/p>\n

According to preliminary election results, De la Espriella won Colombia\u2019s presidential election on Sunday, narrowly defeating human rights activist Iv\u00e1n Cepeda. Ahead of his electoral victory, De la Espriella traveled to Madrid in January to hold talks with Santiago Abascal, the president of Spain\u2019s right-wing Vox party.<\/p>\n

During the visit, De la Espriella joined Foro Madrid, an organization established by Vox\u2019s party foundation to link right-wing and far-right groups across Spain and Latin America.<\/p>\n

Other prominent right-wing figures in the region, including Chilean politician Jos\u00e9 Antonio Kast and Venezuela\u2019s US-backed opposition leader Mar\u00eda Corina Machado, are also part of this network.<\/p>\n

Vox acts as a facilitator for relations between the Latin American right and the European far right, including connections with the Patriots for Europe (PfE) group in the European Parliament.<\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump openly intervened in the Colombian election campaign to back De la Espriella, who has campaigned on a platform of “eradicating the left.”<\/p>\n

De la Espriella: Attorney to paramilitaries and drug barons<\/strong><\/p>\n

Abelardo de la Espriella is recognized as a close associate of \u00c1lvaro Uribe, the right-wing politician who served as Colombia\u2019s president from 2002 to 2010 and continues to wield significant political influence in the country.<\/p>\n

A millionaire of many years, De la Espriella built his career as a high-profile defense attorney. His client list has included notorious right-wing paramilitaries, politicians allied with them, and prominent drug barons.<\/p>\n

Among his clients was Salvatore Mancuso, a paramilitary commander and drug trafficker who was extradited to the US in 2008, where he was sentenced to 15 years in prison.<\/p>\n

The Spanish daily newspaper\u00a0El Pa\u00eds<\/em>\u00a0previously described De la Espriella as the “lawyer of the mafia.”<\/p>\n

In July, De la Espriella declared that he would do “everything in his power” to “eliminate” leftist politicians and activists, stating, “This plague must be eradicated.”<\/p>\n

One of his campaign advertisements depicted him kneeling on the back of his electoral opponent, Iv\u00e1n Cepeda, pinning him heavily to the ground.<\/p>\n

More recently, the president-elect was forced to defend his conduct after showing a female journalist a photograph of his lower body.<\/p>\n

The image reportedly showed a prominent bulge in the groin area of his tight trousers. He reportedly told the journalist, “Come closer and tell me what you see.”<\/p>\n

End of the “negotiation” era with guerrilla organizations<\/strong><\/p>\n

The formal political objectives pursued by De la Espriella during his campaign align closely with plans outlined by US President Donald Trump for restructuring the Colombian state.<\/p>\n

De la Espriella has announced that his administration will no longer seek to resolve Colombia’s ongoing internal conflicts with remaining guerrilla factions and drug cartels through negotiations\u2014the approach favored by outgoing President Gustavo Petro. Instead, he intends to rely on military force.<\/p>\n

Proposed measures include launching airstrikes against guerrilla positions and resuming the aerial spraying of the controversial herbicide glyphosate over coca plantations.<\/p>\n

According to analytical assessments, the consequences of such a securitized policy are likely to be “catastrophic,” particularly for rural areas.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, De la Espriella has announced plans to construct 10 “mega-prisons” in remote regions of the country, which would likely operate under private-sector control.<\/p>\n

These facilities are modeled on the high-security prisons established in El Salvador under President Nayib Bukele, where human rights organizations have repeatedly documented abysmal conditions.<\/p>\n

On the economic front, De la Espriella advocates for drastic cuts to public spending, targeting a 40% reduction in state expenditures.<\/p>\n

His economic policy model is Argentine President Javier Milei.<\/p>\n

US-independent foreign policy sidelined<\/strong><\/p>\n

In foreign policy, De la Espriella aims to bring Colombia back under direct US alignment.<\/p>\n

To this end, the incoming leader has announced “Plan Colombia 2.0.” The original Plan Colombia, implemented in the 2000s, involved billions of dollars in US weapons purchases alongside joint military operations with US forces on Colombian soil, which ultimately resulted in a dramatic escalation of violence.<\/p>\n

De la Espriella has also declared his intention to join the “Shield of the Americas” initiative. This alliance, established in March by the Trump administration, links the US with Latin American and Caribbean nations governed by right-wing administrations.<\/p>\n

Trump spoke highly of De la Espriella and openly supported him throughout the campaign.<\/p>\n

Immediately following De la Espriella\u2019s victory in the first round of the presidential election, Trump declared on social media that the election outcome was vital for Colombia\u2019s relations with the US and offered his “full and complete endorsement.”<\/p>\n

The Trump administration\u2019s involvement in the Colombian campaign extended beyond rhetoric.<\/p>\n

Shortly before the elections, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio ordered the arrest of Beto Coral, a Colombian activist who had applied for asylum in the US, and set in motion plans to deport him.<\/p>\n

The action was taken after Coral spoke out publicly against De la Espriella. Rubio defended the decision, arguing that Coral\u2019s continued presence in the US “would harm the foreign policy interests of the United States.”<\/p>\n

Vox: The “facilitator” between European and Latin American right-wing networks<\/strong><\/p>\n

De la Espriella\u2019s political network extends beyond the US to include influential figures in Europe.<\/p>\n

At a major campaign event held in Bogot\u00e1 on November 3, 2025, to support De la Espriella\u2019s presidential bid, attendees included Alvise P\u00e9rez, a Spanish Member of the European Parliament and founder of the right-wing party Se Acab\u00f3 La Fiesta (SALF).<\/p>\n

The party’s two representatives in the European Parliament sit with the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) group.<\/p>\n

On January 13, De la Espriella met in Madrid with Santiago Abascal, the leader of Spain\u2019s Vox party, which maintains extensive ties to Latin America.<\/p>\n

On the same day, De la Espriella joined Foro Madrid, an alliance founded in 2020 by Fundaci\u00f3n Disenso, a think tank affiliated with Vox and officially chaired by Abascal.<\/p>\n

Foro Madrid serves to coordinate right-wing and far-right forces in Latin America, linking them directly to Spain\u2019s political right, particularly Vox.<\/p>\n

Vox is a member of the Patriots for Europe (PfE) group in the European Parliament, an alliance that includes Marine Le Pen\u2019s National Rally (RN) in France, Matteo Salvini’s Lega in Italy, and Viktor Orb\u00e1n’s Fidesz in Hungary.<\/p>\n

Through these institutional channels, Colombia\u2019s incoming president is integrated into Europe’s broader right-wing and far-right political network.<\/p>\n
