In contrast, those who steal a cell phone and a necklace get severe sentences.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding security in Colombia, <strong>Enrique Pe\u00f1alosa<\/strong> affirmed that it is the highest priority; therefore, citizens have the right to live without fear.

He also argued that the National Police should continue to be part of the Ministry of National Defense.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the death of alias Roma\u00f1a and el Paisa in Venezuela, <strong>Gustavo Petro<\/strong> pointed out that it is still paradoxical that they, who resisted a very experienced Army like the Colombian for years in Colombia, died at the hands of an inexperienced Venezuelan Army.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fundaci\u00f3n Paz y Reconciliaci\u00f3n<\/strong> claimed that electoral violence had left 140 victims in Colombia,including 16 people killed, in 99 events since March 2020.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Juan Gonz\u00e1lez<\/strong>, Special Assistant and Director of the National Security Council for the Western Hemisphere of the White House, stated that the US would carry out surveillance tasks during this electoral period in Colombia to avoid any influence from external actors in favor of one or several candidates.<\/p>\n<h5>Economy<\/h5>\n<p>Related to the land property statute, <strong>Gustavo Petro<\/strong> pointed out that he is not planning to take the land away from people. However, he emphasized that the issue of fertile land that is not used must be worked to boost the country&#8217;s economy.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the housing policy in a possible government, <strong>Gustavo Petro<\/strong>stated that he is interested in lowering the cost of housing in Colombia. For this, products found in international trade cheaper than in the nation would reduce the tariffs to zero.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the housing policy in a possible government, <strong>Enrique Pe\u00f1alosa<\/strong>affirmed that there are more and more houses of 20 and 30 meters in housing projects.

In the analyzed period, there is a long list of candidates for the Presidency of the Republic. However, three coalitions are recognized:<strong>Pacto Hist\u00f3rico, Centro Esperanza y Equipo Por Colombia<\/strong>, the independent candidacy of <strong>Rodolfo Hern\u00e1ndez<\/strong> and the candidacy of <strong>\u00d3scar Iv\u00e1nZuluaga<\/strong> for Centro Democr\u00e1tico.<\/p>\n<p>2. According to different surveys carried out, in this case, the Yanhaas survey, <strong>Gustavo Petro<\/strong> has been shown as the candidate with the best chance of being President. Secondly, the uncertainty among Colombians when choosing a candidate continues to be representative. Finally, the rise of Rodolfo Hern\u00e1ndez in the polls has also been notorious.<\/p>\n<p>3. According to the Invamer survey, only two of the thirteen candidates had favorability over their unfavorability to people polled in December.<\/p>\n<p>4. <strong>Gustavo Petro<\/strong> continues to be the candidate with the most significant role and leadership in the public debate on the issues on the electoral agenda.<\/p>\n<p>5. 2,853 candidates registered to participate in the Senate and House of Representatives elections. Ofthe 172 representatives in the House, 27 appear on the lists of different parties to the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>6. The <strong>National Civil Registry Office<\/strong> released the official list of the 398 candidates who aspire to the 16 peace seats created in the House of Representatives.<\/p>\n<p>7. Senator <strong>John Milton Rodr\u00edguez<\/strong> officially received the endorsement of Colombia Justa Libres despite the strong opposition of the president of that party, Senator Ricardo Arias.<\/p>\n<p>8. <strong>Coalici\u00f3n de la Esperanza<\/strong> will present two lists for the Senate, as well as lists for the House of Representatives in most of the departments.
