Trump Colombia conflict Colombian President Gustavo Petro has targeted US President Donald Trump's policies and his alleged racist attitude. Petro's statement criticizing Trump has come at a time when Colombo and America have just today averted a full-blown trade war.

Colombia recently blocked the entry of flights carrying migrant residents from the US, but after Trump threatened to impose tariffs, the Petro government did a U-turn and allowed the planes to land.

What did Gustavo Petro say?

In a lengthy viral post on X, Colombia's first leftist president criticized Trump's attitude towards Bogota and even threatened to impose retaliatory tariffs unless his government changes its stance on the issue.

I will keep fighting for my people: Petro

Petro further said that even if Trump kills me, I will live among my people, which is America before your people. 

Trump will destroy the human race because of his greed

Petro targeted Trump and said that he is going to wipe out the human race because of greed. The leftist leader also said that he is no longer afraid of Trump's threats.

Let us tell you that today the White House has announced the suspension of Trump's plans to impose tariffs on Colombia. Today, when Colombia allowed the flight of immigrants from America to land, America also showed a soft stance.
