Política Seguridad

El 8 de agosto, EE. UU. anunciaron un paquete de ayuda de seguridad de $1 mil millones para Colombia, tras la inauguración del presidente Abelardo de la Espriella el día anterior. De la Espriella juró su cargo en Cali el 7 de agosto, prometiendo poner fin a las negociaciones con los insurgentes, recortar el gasto público y reactivar el sector petrolero.

EE. UU. habían indicado previamente la intención de proporcionar dicha ayuda, mientras analistas señalaban retos financieros y de seguridad para el nuevo gobierno. La ceremonia de juramentación contó con una fuerte presencia militar, con miles de tropas desplegadas, y el nuevo presidente prometió endurecer la lucha contra los grupos armados y reducir el gasto estatal.
