Not covered in this article, but apparently Colombian president folded like a lawn chair an hour later and authorized the return of Colombian immigrants.

President Donald Trump on Sunday announced strict tariffs and visa restrictions on Colombia after the South American nation’s president, Gustavo Petro, said his country will not accept deportation flights from the United States unless the Trump administration ensures that repatriated Colombian migrants are treated with the “dignity that a human being deserves.”

In a series of posts shared on X on Sunday, Petro said the U.S. can’t treat Colombian migrants “like criminals.”

“I do not authorize the entry of North American planes carrying Colombian migrants into our territory,” Petro said. “The U.S. must establish a protocol of dignified treatment of migrants before we receive them.”

On Sunday, Trump retaliated by announcing tariffs of 25 percent immediately, rising to 50 percent in a week, on all Colombian goods coming into the United States after he said two U.S. flights were turned away. He also issued a travel ban and said the United States would immediately revoke the visas of Colombian government officials, their allies and supporters.

“These measures are just the beginning,” Trump threatened in a post on Truth Social. He contended the actions were warranted because Colombia was violating its legal obligations and was harming the national security of the United States.
