Honduran President Castro Accuses Trump of Election Interference
Tegucigalpa, Honduras – December 10, 2025 – Honduran President Xiomara Castro has publicly denounced alleged tampering with the country’s general election results and accused former U.S. President Donald Trump of interfering in the vote. The accusations come as vote counting continues following the November 30th election, with conservative candidate Nasry Asfura, backed by Trump, currently holding a narrow lead.
Speaking at a rally on December 9th, President Castro alleged that the electoral process was marred by threats, coercion, manipulation of the preliminary results system (TREP), and tampering with the popular will. She specifically accused Trump of threatening Hondurans against voting for left-wing candidate Rixi Moncada, who is currently in third place.
Right-wing candidate Salvador Nasralla, currently in second place, has also voiced concerns about electoral corruption, labeling the results as “theft” on Monday.
Trump publicly endorsed Asfura in the final days of the campaign, calling him “a friend of freedom” and accusing Nasralla of falsely claiming to be anti-communist. The final vote count remains ongoing amid rising tensions and accusations of electoral misconduct.
