Colombia formalizes ninth indigenous territory in Amazon amid pending claims

Colombia's new Interior Minister Alejandro Ordóñez signed a resolution formalizing the ninth indigenous territorial entity (ETI) in the Amazon, located between Vaupés and Guainía. This follows a tutela (constitutional court order) decision, but 11 other ETIs remain pending, including the Pirá Paraná River territory. The move signals continued state recognition of indigenous land rights, though implementation and pending cases remain uncertain.
