Colombia began voting Sunday in parliamentary elections that will shape the final months of leftist President Gustavo Petro’s term and indicate whether the former dominant right-wing bloc is prepared for a political return. Approximately 40 million voters are choosing from nearly 300 legislators. The results will determine the composition of the Congress and provide a significant assessment of the political landscape just weeks before the May presidential elections.

Security forces, including reinforced security units, are present at polling stations in the department of Cauca, Colombia, where indigenous Misaki women are expected to vote. The elections are crucial for determining the future direction of the country, and observers are closely watching the potential resurgence of right-wing political forces.
