Abelardo de La Espriella, a right-wing candidate from the Defensores da Pátria movement, has won Colombia's presidential election according to preliminary results from the National Electoral Council (CNE). The victory was narrow, with a margin of just 0.95% (246,000 votes) out of 25 million cast. De La Espriella described the result as marking 'a new stage' for Colombia, emphasizing freedom, security, prosperity, and opportunity. Current President Gustavo Petro, who supported the defeated leftist candidate Iván Cepeda, claimed there were 'many irregularities' in the election and stated he would only recognize the outcome after a recount by over nine thousand judges and notaries. Cepeda acknowledged the preliminary results but announced his party would challenge the validity of 33,000 voting machines. The close race has sparked discussions about national unity and foreign interference.
