The Spin

Establishment-critical narrative

Colombia's rapprochement with Venezuela is a major blow to the US administration. Prior to Petro, Colombia served as a NATO outpost to advance US geopolitical and military interests in the region. The election of leftist governments across Latin America is now pushing back Washington's influence, paving the way for people-serving economic integration and lasting regional peace.

Pro-establishment narrative

With the election of the Marxist Petro as Colombia's new president, the US has lost its most important military ally in the region. That Bogotá is now opening up to the Maduro dictatorship with its criminal ties to Russia, China, and Iran, and that both governments are now dreaming of socialist economic regional integration, is a dangerous development, and Washington must not stand by idly.
