AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Colombia Election Watch: More than 1,200 international observers arrived in Bogotá to back transparency for Sunday’s presidential vote, as concerns grow that President Gustavo Petro could challenge results. Political Stakes for Travelers: The election is also being framed as a turning point for Colombia’s economy and foreign investment, with the oil sector under the spotlight after Petro-era policies hit output. World Cup Travel in Colombia’s Orbit: Bogotá’s El Dorado airport is spending about US$5.6M to modernize immigration for the 2026 World Cup, adding more checkpoints and faster biometric entry to handle peak crowds. Security and Community Impact: In the southwest, guerrilla violence is traumatizing children in Suarez, where residents describe constant anxiety from drone attacks and renewed clashes ahead of the vote. Practical Visitor Tips: A guide for foreigners breaks down when tap water is safe versus when bottled or filtered water is smarter, plus how to handle ice and street food safely. Football & Culture: Morat will headline Colombia’s national team farewell event at El Campín in Bogotá before the 2026 World Cup.
