short by Ankush Verma / on Monday, 18 June, 2018
Ivan Duque was elected Colombia's next President on Sunday after promising to roll back a peace accord with the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) rebels. Duque, who will turn 42 just before taking office on August 8, will be Colombia's youngest ever President. The 53-year-old conflict between the Colombian government and the rebels had ended in August last year.
