Zapata has instituted numerous reforms, including various austerity measures in every governmental department, tackling corruption, and instituting various governmental ethics reform. He has also made foreign engagement and trade a cornerstone of his first term, visiting 31 countries within his first year in office. As of April 2012, he holds a 47% approval rating amongst the Colombian public, a fairly average approval rating by Colombian standards. He will seek reelection to the Palacio Bolivariano in 2014.
