La Nación, a prominent Costa Rican news outlet, published a series of posts on January 23, 2026, addressing key topics ranging from the upcoming presidential elections in Costa Rica to international crime and television interviews.

In a tweet posted at 21:02 UTC, La Nación encouraged readers to explore which presidential candidate aligns most closely with their views by stating: ” Descubra cuál candidato presidencial coincide más con usted en 20 temas clave para las elecciones 2026 https://t.co/i3e51OB5fa” (January 23, 2026).

Shortly after, at 21:05 UTC, the outlet referenced an episode of the television program ‘De boca en boca’ on Teletica. The tweet read: “En ‘De boca en boca’, de Teletica, Montserrat del Castillo le recordó al entrevistado algo que sucedió hace 14 años https://t.co/1E4Y9mea3K” (January 23, 2026).

Later that evening at 21:10 UTC, La Nación turned its attention to regional security issues. The post stated: “Alianzas en Colombia catapultaron al Cartel del Caribe Sur, según OFAC https://t.co/f2NJrH5zr9” (January 23, 2026).

The reference to the Costa Rican presidential elections comes as voters prepare for the national polls scheduled for early February every four years. Tools designed to help citizens compare their views with those of candidates have become increasingly common in recent electoral cycles.

The mention of OFAC refers to the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. This agency regularly investigates and imposes sanctions related to transnational criminal organizations such as drug cartels operating in Latin America.

Teletica’s ‘De boca en boca’ is a popular entertainment program in Costa Rica known for its celebrity interviews and discussions about local culture and current events.
