Peace deal under threatWhile Biden and Trump duke it out for a quarter of a million Floridian votes, in Colombia a fragile peace hangs in the balance. Colombia's Duque administration has been working to dismantle the peace deal since taking office in August 2018. The President has dragged his feet in distributing land to smallholders in rural areas under agrarian reforms set out by the peace deal. Meanwhile, Colombia's opposition figures are fearful of the potential consequences for the peace deal if Trump is reelected. The gravity of the situation is underlined by worsening violence due to continued attacks on the peace deal.
