plotting map and table side-by-side, fullwidth

[scipima]

Hi, i've been trying to squeeze a table (on the left) and a map (on the right), having the latter pushed all the way to the right.
fig-align seems to be overridden by something else, as the code with or without it renders exactly the same.
also playing with the layout of the page does not seem to work.

title: "Untitled"
format:
pdf:
classoption: [landscape]
geometry:

• top=10mm
• bottom=10mm
• left=10mm
• right=10mm
  execute:
  echo: false
  warning: false

#| echo: true
#| output: false
#| include: false

lapply(c("tidyverse", "giscoR", "scales", "ggrepel", "janitor"), FUN = require, character.only=T)

# set theme globally for ggplots --------------------------------------------###
theme_set(theme_minimal(base_size = 10, base_family = "serif"))

#| cache: true

eu27 <- c("AT", "BE", "BG", "CY", "CZ", "DE", "DK", "EE", "EL", "ES", "FI", "FR",
          "HR", "HU", "IE", "IT", "LT", "LU", "LV", "MT", "NL", "PL", "PT", "RO",
          "SI", "SK", "SE")

set.seed(1234)

# download shapefile
gisco_2020 <- giscoR::gisco_get_countries(
    year = "2020",
    epsg = "4326",
    cache = TRUE,
    update_cache = FALSE,
    cache_dir = NULL,
    verbose = FALSE,
    resolution = "60",
    country = c(eu27)) |>
    janitor::clean_names() |>
    dplyr::select(c("cntr_id", "cntr_name", "iso3_code", "name_engl", "fid", "geometry")) |>
    dplyr::mutate(fake_val = runif(n = length(eu27)))

The map should be placed all the way to the right.
I tried all combinations listed in the Overflowing Content section here (https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/article-layout.html#overflowing-content), but to no avail.
Please bear in mind that the output should render in multiple formats, such as Word, PDF, or PowerPoint.
The table is correctly aligned on the left, and with the correct margin.
But on the right, the map is central, and with large margin.

Playing with the page layout does not seem to help either, as the margins which were set above are ignored below and the map itself shrinks.
