Abelardo De La Espriella claims Trump call following tight race

De La Espriella currently holds a lead of less than 1% over his primary opponent, leftist rival Ivan Cepeda. While the count is nearly complete, the narrow gap keeps the final result in a state of high tension. By publicizing the alleged conversation with the American president, De La Espriella is effectively positioning himself as the presumptive winner before the final certification of the ballot boxes. The campaign has not yet provided further details on the duration or substance of the call, nor has the U.S. administration issued a formal confirmation regarding the communication.
