Colombia has elected its first ever left-wing president, Gustavo Petro. This week, InSight Crime looks at what Petro’s Colombia might look like, examining his top security challenges, from drug trafficking to deforestation. We consider whether a return to peace talks with Marxist rebels is likely, or if he might be so bold as to legalize coca production.
Elsewhere, we look at how one of Latin America’s foremost drug traffickers, Brazilian Sergio Roberto de Carvalho, was finally tracked to a luxury Budapest bolt hole, at why Mexican cities are struggling without essential food items, and at a unique type of criminal group – an Indigenous motorcycle gang.
