United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio has extended congratulations to Honduran President-elect Nasry Asfura for his victory in the recent election. Rubio and Asfura engaged in a conversation to discuss potential collaboration on trade and security matters.

Asfura secured a narrow victory in the election held on Wed, Nov 30, 2025. The results were announced after a protracted counting process, characterized by significant tension and allegations of fraud. Asfura represented the National Party and received 40.27% of the vote, defeating Salvador Nasralla of the Liberal Party, who garnered 39.53%.

Secretary Rubio acknowledged Asfura’s support for US strategic objectives, emphasizing the importance of enhancing bilateral and regional security cooperation, as well as strengthening economic ties between the two nations. The State Department released a statement confirming this engagement.

Despite the announcement of results, both Salvador Nasralla and Rixi Moncada, the candidate from the LIBRE Party, have disputed the outcome. Nasralla criticized the election authorities and expressed concerns over the integrity of the voting process, questioning Asfura’s endorsement by former US President Donald Trump.

Asfura, previously the mayor of Tegucigalpa, and of Palestinian descent, leads the National Party, which maintains a pro-Israel stance. Under former President Juan Orlando Hernandez, Honduras relocated its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem in 2021. Asfura’s political alliances include right-wing leaders in the Americas.
