Bogotá. Colombia inicia este domingo una nueva era política con la asunción de Gustavo Petro, el primer presidente de izquierda de su historia que promete transformaciones de fondo en un país inequitativo y acosado por la violencia del narcotráfico.

El exsenador de 62 años, que hace tres décadas dejó la rebelión armada, tomará juramento a las 3 p. m. locales, frente a una nutrida delegación de invitados internacionales.
