The latter word is included in the Colombian Constitution, which recognises campesino or smallholder farmers as a protected category of people, historically marginalised and one of the main victims of the country's armed conflict, thus requiring the state to address inequality and create stronger safeguards for their rights.

And former President Álvaro Uribe testified in court on Friday about his role in the massacres at the El Aro and La Granja farms, as well as the murder of human rights defender Jesús María Valle.

These are events which took place between 1996 and 1998, during Uribe's governorship of the Department of Antioquia.
E
12:33Emily HartCORRESPONDENT
Uribe's complicity in these crimes has long been debated, as have his links to the paramilitary groups responsible for these atrocities, often in alliance with the Colombian military.

On Friday, Uribe was questioned by the Attorney General.
E
12:48Emily HartCORRESPONDENT
This ongoing case aims to determine whether Uribe, while governor of Antioquia, promoted the formation of paramilitary armies that carried out the massacres, murders, tortures and land grabs in the department, as well as whether he himself was involved in those crimes.

[risas] Ahora, él le pasó una cosa, eh, cuando en todas las negociaciones con el-- con, eh, en Ralito, con el entonces presidente Álvaro Uribe, em, decidió tener como una línea que no cruzaba y era la línea del narcotráfico, cosa que me sorprendió mucho, porque, porque digo, bueno, a ver.
A
27:00Alma GuillermoprietoGUEST
Sí.
M
27:01María Jimena DuzánHOST
Y él dijo: "Acá no van a entrar los narcotraficantes".
¿Cómo entienden los colombianos el nuevo gobierno de De La Espriella?
J
69:37Juan Carlos LozadaGUEST
A eso, a esto iba yo.
J
69:38Juan Carlos LozadaGUEST
Mire, eh, estuve hace poco en un foro en el que estaba el vicepresidente de la Comisión Cuarta del Senado, que es, eh, un joven muy entusiasta del Centro Democrático, que fue secretario y UTL de Álvaro Uribe Vélez, y él fue muy claro.
C

¿Cómo se llama?
J
69:54Juan Carlos LozadaGUEST

Eh, algo parecido está sucediendo con Kast en Chile, ¿sí? Eh, acaba con la derecha tradicional y venimos de la experiencia, obviamente, de Donald Trump, que se lleva de calle el Partido Republicano con esta nueva ultraderecha.
M
76:17María Jimena DuzánHOST
Aquí, Abelardo de la Espriella planteó desde el inicio esa discusión.
M
76:22María Jimena DuzánHOST
Y la pregunta que yo les hago a ustedes es, bueno, ¿va a pasar lo mismo que pasó en Estados Unidos, en Argentina, en Chile? Es decir, que van a terminar la nueva derecha absorbiendo a una, eh, eh, digamos, a ese que tigre, diría yo, que es Álvaro Uribe, porque es que ninguno tiene a Álvaro Uribe.

And a floating prison on an adapted boat is reportedly also being prepared to isolate criminal bosses who re-offend or continue to run operations from prison.

6:14Emily HartCORRESPONDENT
It is a measure not seen since 2007 under former President Álvaro Uribe, used to isolate the commanders of armed groups.

And in broader policy news, the government accidentally revealed policy plans this week via the so-called Miracle Cycle Diagram.
E

Pero no funcionó.
J
3:28Jorge EspinosaHOST
Y la embarcación que se escoja tampoco se convertiría en la primera cárcel flotante en Colombia, porque en 2007, durante el gobierno de Álvaro Uribe, el narcotraficante Don Diego fue recluido en un buque en el Pacífico, mientras que el exjefe paramilitar Macaco fue llevado a una fragata en el Caribe porque continuaba delinquiendo desde prisión.
J
3:49Jorge EspinosaHOST
Pero les adelanto algo: el debate será jurídico.
J
3:52Jorge EspinosaHOST
Seguramente los abogados de estos condenados alegarán que ese aislamiento es un tratamiento cruel, de modo que este nuevo plan carcelario terminará muy pronto en los tribunales.

M
7:11Maria Paula Hernandez RuizGUEST
So yeah, absolutely talked about, which is, again, an unheard of line in right-wing politics in Colombia, like Álvaro Uribe Vélez had it very strongly, you know, security through protecting the armed forces.
M
7:26Maria Paula Hernandez RuizGUEST
Protecting them from what? Protecting them from being responsible to say, for example, human rights violations or just give them a lot of impunity in when fighting, you know, insurgency.
J
7:42Jasmine WestendorfHOST
Yeah.
25 MINS LATER
J

So we have this complex history that you two have just laid out for us.

What does the election of what will be the new far-right government mean for peace or for the future of whatever process remains of the 2016 peace process, the demobilisation and so on?
M
33:05Maria Paula Hernandez RuizGUEST
Well, this election is very similar to another election we had in 2002 between Horacio Serpa and Álvaro Uribe Vélez.
M
33:18Maria Paula Hernandez RuizGUEST
It was a very similar kind of situation.

I, too, have noticed these difficulties that the president has had with the traditional Colombian right.

B
26:02Brian WinterHOST
And it was, you know, it was a right-wing figure, but it was not the figure that President de la Espriella wanted.
B
26:09Brian WinterHOST
How would you characterize the current climate between President de la Espriella and the traditional Colombian right that had governed the country for many of the past 25 years?
