Clashes in Honor Colorado over grassroots work as Núñez is seen with Cartes
A message from Pedro Alliana about campaigning on the ground reignited tensions within the Colorado ruling faction. At the same time, Basilio Núñez shared a meeting with Horacio Cartes and denied any split in the group.
The internal tensions in Honor Colorado were once again laid bare with a message from Pedro Alliana on social media and a photo released almost at the same time by Basilio Núñez alongside Horacio Cartes, according to Última Hora.
According to that outlet, Alliana defended electoral work on the ground ahead of the municipal elections and criticized those who do politics from their phones or from the media. “The candidates and the leadership need us in the trenches, fighting, not from cellphone screens or from the media,” he wrote on X.
Última Hora noted that the post came amid the internal crisis within cartismo and was read as a message aimed at a sector Alliana accuses of lacking a base or territorial presence. The outlet added that the gesture also comes amid growing tension over the 2028 presidential candidacy.
Meanwhile, Núñez posted an image with Cartes after a meeting at the former president’s home. According to what he wrote on X, the meeting was to fine-tune details for the municipal elections on October 4.
“Today I held a working meeting with the president of the ANR, Horacio Cartes, finalizing the last details ahead of the municipal elections on October 4,” Núñez said. He also assured that there is no break within the party and maintained that the Coloradism is united and mobilized for those elections.
