UMVA has learned that a clandestine “Hondurasgate” plot has surfaced, threatening to sway Colombia’s upcoming presidential election with a sinister international alliance of the ultra‑right.
The scandal erupted when secret audio recordings, released in late April, revealed a covert conspiracy linking the United States, Israel, and Argentina to destabilize left‑wing governments across Latin America, including Colombia.
These tapes allege that former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez conspired with conservative operatives in these nations to spread disinformation about leftist regimes in Mexico, Colombia, and Brazil.
Since last August, far‑right factions in Colombia have been tightening ties with extremist groups in Latin America, Spain, and the United States, creating a web of influence that stretches across borders.
High‑profile Colombian politicians have been drawn into this network: presidential hopeful Abelardo de la Espriella met Spain’s Vox leader Santiago Abascal in Madrid, while the Foro de Madrid united right‑wing leaders from Europe and the Americas.
Investigations have also linked former congressional candidate Jorge Rodríguez to a global neo‑Nazi group operating in Bogotá, and he has championed another potential presidential contender from the Centro Democrático.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that on May 20, Colombian‑born Senator Bernie Moreno warned at the Atlantic Council that the United States might refuse to recognize the election outcome if voter intimidation evidence surfaces, labeling a left‑ist government a looming disaster.
Historically, Colombia’s entanglement with the global far right has deep roots dating back to the 1930s and 1940s, when nationalist movements forged ties with European fascists, drawing inspiration from Nazism, Italian fascism, and Spanish Catholic nationalism.
These early connections financed and empowered the Colombian far right, stalling reformist agendas and inflaming political polarization, which ultimately contributed to a decade‑long informal civil war and a subsequent dictatorship.
The legacy of those turbulent years warns that the current election could again plunge the nation into division if right‑wing elements succeed in embedding themselves within the political mainstream.
With the stakes higher than ever, UMVA urges readers to stay vigilant as Colombia faces a decisive moment that could reshape its future in ways history has shown can be both profound and perilous.
