Gustavo Petro won the Colombian presidential election as the candidate of the Historic Pact coalition. He defeated Rodolfo Hern

Petro proposed a 'Total Peace' policy aimed at negotiating with all remaining armed groups in Colombia, including the ELN and dissident FARC factions. The policy seeks to extend the peace process beyond the 2016 agreement.

Thabane became Prime Minister after leading a coalition government following the 2012 general election, ending Pakalitha Mosisili's 14-year rule. His All Basotho Convention party won the most seats but required coalition partners to form a government.

Thabane fled to South Africa claiming a coup attempt by the military. He returned after Southern African Development Community mediation, but the incident highlighted deep political instability and civil-military tensions in Lesotho.

Thabane's government collapsed after a no-confidence vote, leading to a snap election which he lost to Pakalitha Mosisili. His brief tenure was marked by political turmoil and coalition instability.

Thabane won the 2017 snap election, returning as Prime Minister after Mosisili's government fell. His coalition government again faced challenges, including internal party disputes and corruption allegations.

Thabane resigned as Prime Minister after being implicated in the murder of his ex-wife. He faced mounting pressure from his party and the public, leading to his resignation and replacement by Moeketsi Majoro.
