On July 20, Colombia's new Congress will be installed, and simultaneously, the Commission of Investigation and Accusation of the Chamber of Representatives—which has constitutional authority to investigate high-ranking state officials, including the president—will receive new members. The author, who serves as president of Medellín's Council, filed a formal complaint against President Gustavo Petro for allegedly ignoring certified election results. This follows multiple investigations into Petro since August 2022, including allegations of irregular campaign financing, improper political involvement, and participation with criminal groups in Medellín. Despite over 200 complaints against the president, only one case—expedient 6992—has progressed to evidence collection due to perceived lack of political will to pursue others. Past commissioners of the investigation commission have faced legal issues or scandals, raising concerns about impartiality. The author argues that the focus on Senate and Chamber leadership elections is misplaced, emphasizing that the composition of the investigative commission determines whether a serious political trial against Petro can occur.

El ex-presidente Gustavo Petro anunció que no asistirá a la ceremonia de posesión del nuevo presidente electo, Abelardo De La Espriella, el 7 de agosto, debido a su creencia de que hubo un fraude electoral de 848.000 votos. Petro sostiene que este fraude no ha sido comprobado judicialmente y, por ello, declara su ausencia tanto física como simbólica. Aunque tradicionalmente el presidente saliente participa en esta ceremonia, Petro argumenta que no puede reconocer públicamente a un mandatario que, según él, no representa la voluntad popular. Por otro lado, De La Espriella ha confirmado que se posesionará en una base militar del sur del país, pese a las objeciones de Petro. El proceso aún enfrenta resistencias dentro del Congreso, donde algunos grupos políticos se oponen a la celebración del juramento en un entorno militar.

The newly elected Colombian president, Abelardo De La Espriella, announced during a festive event on Monday night that his administration will launch a national digital platform for recruiting public officials based solely on merit.

On July 20, Colombia's new Congress for the 2026–2030 term convened, with the election of the Senate and Chamber of Representatives presidents being the most critical issue. The race for the Senate presidency has been particularly contentious, with Alfredo Deluque, backed by incoming President Abelardo De La Espriella, facing off against Honorio Henríquez, supported by the Centro Democrático led by Álvaro Uribe Vélez. Deluque appears to have strong support, including from various parties and factions, giving him a clear path to victory with 52 votes. Henríquez, meanwhile, relies on the 17 senators from Centro Democrático and faces uncertainty regarding the 26 members of the Pacto Histórico, who have not yet decided their stance. Gustavo Petro, leader of the Pacto Histórico, has explicitly ruled out supporting the incoming government, calling such actions 'fascist.' In the Chamber of Representatives, Nicolás Barguil of the Conservative Party is expected to win easily.

The article discusses whether President Gustavo Petro will attend the presidential inauguration of Abelardo De La Espriella.

The president is elected directly by the people and must swear an oath before Congress on August 7th, a tradition established by a constitutional reform in 1910. Sáchica clarifies that Petro’s absence would have no legal consequences since the legitimacy of the new president comes from electoral credentials and the swearing-in ceremony before Congress, not from the outgoing president’s participation.
