Colombian right-wing and centrist candidates obtained sweeping victories in Sunday’s regional elections, dealing a huge blow to the leftist government coalition led by President Gustavo Petro, the nation’s first leftist president.

Historically, Colombian citizens have not been fond of communism, largely in part due to Colombia’s continued fight against Marxist drug trafficking terrorist organizations such as the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia , the National Liberation Army , and the now-extinct M19 guerilla, of which Petro was a former member during his youth.

“They talk about my political defeat and I only advance them one fact: the political forces that triumphed in my presidential campaign won in seven departments,” Petro’s deleted message reportedly read. “Four years ago we only had an impact in one.”
