Colombia has a new president.
Abelardo de la Espriella, or El Tigre, as he dubs himself,
promising a security crackdown and economic revival, and proudly emulating Donald Trump.
He's the latest in a wave of right-leaning leaders elected in Latin America.
The region is known for its political swings, but the scale and speed of this one is unprecedented.
What is behind the rightward shift, and why is it happening now?
I'm Zanny Minton Beddoes, The Economist's editor-in-chief.
Welcome back to The Insider.
Joining me as always is my co-host and deputy editor Ed Carr.
Very nice to see you.
Hi, Zanny.
And back on the show again is Hal Hodson, our America's editor.
Nice to see you too.
Delighted to be here.
And Robert Guest, another deputy who has joined us before
and knows a lot about Latin America.
Very nice to have you back on the show.
Nice to be here.
And last but not least, sleep deprived, having written half of this week's paper,
is our Latin America correspondent based in Uruguay, Kinley Salmon.
