 Hi @rdobovic and welcome to WordPress trac!
 Have you tried first asking in the support forums?

 This is not a bug with WordPress.
 When you change the default site wide (global) link color, the color is
 only changed on blocks that does not already have a link color set.
 This is necessary because otherwise, the color settings on the blocks
 would not work. We would not be able to have different colors on different
 blocks.

 The theme is designed to have the color "preset color secondary" on links
 in the content.
 To change it, you must open the Styles sidebar, open the blocks panel, and
 change the link color of the content block itself.

 -----
 There are different ways for block themes to assign colors.
 - Default colors for the body and for the blocks can be added in the
 theme.json configuration file.
 - Colors can also be added in the patterns and in the templates
 themselves, when the designer wants to use other colors than the block
 defaults. In this case, you need to select the block itself in the editor
 and change the color. These colors can not be changed through the Styles
 sidebar.
