Pro-Trump candidate pulls ahead in Colombia presidential vote as ruling party sows doubt in results

Aberaldo de la Espriella, a pro-Trump candidate, led Colombia's first-round presidential vote with 44% against Iván Cepeda's 41%, setting up a June runoff. Cepeda, an ally of outgoing President Gustavo Petro, disputed the results without evidence, alleging vote manipulation. De la Espriella emphasized a crackdown on armed groups, while Cepeda advocates for peace negotiations with guerrillas.
