Duque bid farewell to his greatest allies during his four years in office, for whom he had words of thanks in a passionate speech.

Iván Duque's mandate ends next Saturday, and on Sunday, Gustavo Petro - elected in the run-off on 19 June with more than 11 million votes - will receive the presidency.
