💨 Abstract

Colombia's President Gustavo Petro has named unionist Edwin Palma as the new Energy Minister, as part of a cabinet reshuffle. Palma, a former head of major oil union USO and board member at state-run energy company Ecopetrol, will push for Colombia's transition away from hydrocarbons to renewable energy. The move comes after Petro asked all ministers to resign following objections to his appointments.
