Trump-endorsed de la Espriella declared winner of Colombia’s presidential runoff election

Conservative businessman Abelardo de la Espriella, endorsed by U.S. President Donald Trump, won Colombia’s presidential runoff election against progressive candidate Iván Cepeda by 1 percentage point, marking a shift from outgoing President Gustavo Petro’s policies. Cepeda conceded after a recount confirmed de la Espriella’s victory, which reflects voter dissatisfaction with Petro’s 'total peace' initiatives and economic challenges.
