Colombia’s President Reverses Course Following U.S. Retaliation After It Blocked Deportation Flights




Colombia's president is now sending his presidential plane to pick up the illegal aliens.

The Government of Colombia, under the direction of President Gustavo Petro, has arranged the presidential plane to facilitate the dignified return of the compatriots who were going to arrive in the country today in the morning, coming from deportation flights,” Petro’s office said in a statement.

“This measure responds to the Government’s commitment to guarantee decent conditions. In no way have Colombians, as patriots and subjects of rights, have not been and will be banished from Colombian territory.”


Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that under President Donald Trump’s leadership, the U.S. “will no longer be lied to nor taken advantage of.”

“It is the responsibility of each nation to take back their citizens who are illegally present in the United States in a serious and expeditious manner,” he said.

The reversal by Petro came just several minutes after Trump announced a series of tough measures against the country for refusing the flights, including:

Emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States. In one week, the 25% tariffs will be raised to 50%.

A Travel Ban and immediate Visa Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and ers.


Visa Sanctions on all Party , Family , and ers of the Colombian Government.

Enhanced Customs and Border Protection Inspections of all Colombian Nationals and Cargo on national security grounds.
IEEPA Treasury, Banking and Financial Sanctions to be fully imposed.

Trump said that the measures were only “the beginning” and that the U.S. “will not allow the Colombian Government to violate its legal obligations with regard to the acceptance and return of the Criminals they forced into the United States!”

Na see power play! At least Petro is doing it the right way. Using a presidential plane to evacuate his citizens at least will remove the handcuffs.

But let's see how far that will go with African Presidos.

Hmmm. I'm a Democrat, but I don't even know what to make of this. Future elections are going to be a tough one for Democrats.
