The elected president-elect Abelardo de la Espriella accused outgoing President Gustavo Petro of being a 'tyrant-in-the-making' seeking to 'perpetuate himself in power.' He alleged that Petro and Senator Iván Cepeda were planning a coup to maintain control, and ordered his vice-presidential candidate José Manuel Restrepo to cease meetings with Petro's administration, which he called a 'coupist government.' De la Espriella claimed Petro's narrative aims to 'burn the country' and rejected claims that Petro challenged the 'sovereign will of the people,' arguing that Petro was acting out of self-interest. He criticized Petro for claiming authority over electoral processes and for allegedly ignoring the election results based on 'oration.' De la Espriella also linked Petro's actions to fears of exposing corruption and legal consequences related to ties with narcoterrorism and former President Nicolás Maduro. He urged the military to uphold the Constitution and not follow orders from Petro, who had previously stated he would hand over power by August 7 despite knowing the incoming administration did not win the election.

The outgoing president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, has rejected the election victory of his successor, Abelardo De La Espriella, claiming that Senator Iván Cepeda was the true winner. Petro has raised unsubstantiated claims of electoral fraud and broken his promise to recognize the official vote count conducted by the country’s judges. In response, De La Espriella suspended the transition process and vowed to pursue legal action against Petro and Cepeda. Petro has repeatedly cast doubt on preliminary vote counts and linked digital forms published by the National Registry to alleged fraud. He has also connected the Bautista brothers—partners of Thomas Greg & Sons—to a U.S. IP address and Israeli lobbyists. Within Petro’s coalition, no one publicly challenges his extreme opposition, though Cepeda has discussed a strategy to 'discredit' De La Espriella’s presidency. The situation raises concerns over the peaceful transfer of power, with De La Espriella calling on the military to uphold the Constitution and resist any orders contradicting democratic principles.

The incoming government has conditioned resuming transition meetings on President Gustavo Petro recognizing the victory of Abelardo de la Espriella. Vice President-elect José Manuel Restrepo stated that discussions would resume only after Petro acknowledges the election results, citing Petro’s claims of fraud. Restrepo dismissed speculation about Petro’s possible extradition as hypothetical scenarios requiring multiple legal processes. The Law 951 of 2005 ensures power transfer through administrative acts regardless of formal handover procedures. Opposition senator Iván Cepeda accused de la Espriella of forming a 'paramilitary government' based on three proposals: creating a security force with veterans, reinstating the Esmad, and building large prisons funded by private entities. Cepeda reiterated allegations of de la Espriella’s ties to paramilitary groups, some of which were previously archived by the judiciary. Meanwhile, de la Espriella began regional handovers with local leaders in Cúcuta, despite the suspension of national-level transitions. The first meeting addressed public order, commercial revival, and infrastructure projects. Designated Minister of Interior Rodrigo Lara
