Summary

Since taking office in August, new far-right Colombian president Abelardo de la Espriella has shared video after video promoting his security forces – especially operations they’ve carried out against armed groups. In some, De la Espriella speaks standing among body bags. Others feature prisoners or look like they were taken from an action film. However, there’s been growing outcry about his social media glorification of repressive policies.
