Colombia has 'overcome the impasse with the US government', according to foreign minister Luis Gilberto Murillo. This is after Washington halted its tariffs and sanctions threats following a deportations deal with Bogota.
PODCAST: Listen to Welcome to MAGAland for the latest insider Trump news & gossip Colombia n President Gustavo Petro has accused Donald Trump of being a 'white slaveholder' who is on track to 'wipe out the human species' after being humiliated by the US president in a dsipute over migrants.
'Overthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond... You can try to carry out a coup with your economic strength and your arrogance.' President Trump had earlier imposed tariffs of 25 per cent on Colombian imports and an immediate visa revocation for government officials after the nation refused two planeloads of citizens who had been deported from the United States
'I like going to the black neighbourhoods of Washington, where I saw an entire fight in the US capital between blacks and Latinos with barricades, which seemed like nonsense to me, because they should join.' Trump ordered a 25 percent tariff and visa revocation of Colombian government officials after the president refused to let migrant deportation flights land on Sunday
'For Trump to threaten Colombia this way is pretty bold itself. Colombia remains historically the longest standing, the deepest, strategic ally in the region.' Petro did offer to hash out his differences with President Trump 'one day, over a glass of whiskey,' but said doing so would be difficult because he does not think the U.S. leader respects him or his people.
Trump announced the tariffs, as well as his imposition of 'A Travel Ban and immediate Visa Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and Supporters' on social media.
