The president, Iván Duque of the rightwing Democratic Centre party, will resume
ambitious pro-growth reforms as the health crisis ebbs, including changes to taxation,
labour laws, pensions and health care, alongside the sale of state assets. But this will

to social tensions over inflows of Venezuelan migrants, peace arrangements with the
FARC guerrilla movement and violence in the countryside.
