The White House announced yesterday night (local time) that Colombia accepted the terms set by US President Donald Trump for repatriation of irregular migrants in that country, adding that Consequently, duties and sanctions announced earlier are suspended at the expense of the Latin American country.

“The Colombian government has accepted all the terms of President Trump, including the disproved acceptance of all illegal aliens from Colombia re -opened by the United States, including those transported by military aircraft, with no restriction or delay,” the US presidency said.

Duties and penalties will come back in force if Bogota violates the dealhe added.

Colombian Foreign Minister Murillo says the “deadlock” with the US “overcome”

Colombian Foreign Minister Luis Hilberto Murillo assured yesterday night (local time) that the “deadlock” with the US was “overcome”, after Colombia accepted Donald Trump’s terms for the repatriation of irregularities.

Duty and penalties

It is recalled that Trump previously announced on Sunday a series of duties and sanctions against Colombia, the government and personally of Gustavo Petro’s counterpart – by impressive escalation of bilateral tension, after the decision by Bogota had taken back Aircraft carrying immigrants under expulsion from the US.

Colombian Social Democrat President Gustavos Petro explained the rationale of his decision, stressing that “the immigrant is not a criminal”, on the contrary “he must be treated with the dignity worth every human being”.

“We will welcome our nationals (if transported) by civilian aircraft without treating them as criminals,” he added.

Reacting, US President Trump, referring to a decision that “jeopardizes his country’s national security and public security”, announced through Truth Social Coalitions of Representatives, in particular the imposition of 25% duties on all Colombia products imported In the US, although the two countries have signed a free trade agreement in force since 2006.

He showed that in a week, duties would rise to 50%.

Colombia is the third largest US US partner in Latin America.

Colombian President Peter reacted, in turn announced through X that he ordered the Ministry of Foreign Trade to “increase the US import duties to 25%”.

Sanctions announced by Donald Trump also included a ban on US entry and cancellation of passport visas for Colombian government officials, including the head of state, allies and supporters, as well as “reinforced controls” at any time ordered by any entry or “enhanced controls” reaching the country from the state of Latin America.

He also announced financial and banking penalties to the detriment of Peter’s members.

“These measures are only the beginning,” the Republican threatened, accusing the Colombian government of violating “its legal obligation to accept the return of criminals who forced the US to welcome”.

Colombian President Peter also said that he would send the Presidential Aircraft to “facilitate the decent return of citizens (Colombia) who were to arrive in the country (yesterday) with expulsion flights”.

A source from the French Agency in the Colombian Presidency noted that Washington did not follow the “usual process” in such cases.

US diplomat leader Marco Rubio argued in a statement made public by his State Department that Mr Petros had initially accepted the flights, but “canceled his approval while the aircraft were in flight”.

A few hours later, Mr Rubio announced that he ordered the issuance of any passport visa by the US Embassy in Bogota and the launch of travel penalties on Peter members.

Donald Trump promised the “largest expulsion program in American history” in the pre -election program, and the White House boasted last week to arrest hundreds of “criminals of illegal immigrants”, stressing that they were deported on military flights and not policies.

Most of the estimates of 11 million irregular migrants in his country are nationals of Latin America.

After his swearing -in on January 20, no deportations have been deported to Colombia – they were done in Guatemala and Brazil, however.

A few days earlier, the Mexican authorities also did not accept the deportation of citizens of the country by US military aircraft; Mr Trump did not announce such measures against the Mexican government – however, he has already announced the imposition of 10% duties from February 1 in the country. This, as in Canada, because of the “invasion”, as it calls the entry of immigrants without papers.

Analysts estimate that the Donald Trump government is likely to attempt to turn Colombia into an example to avoid.

On the other hand, the Colombian president stressed that there were 15,660 Americans in his country without a residence permit, but his government would never go on raids to deport rails to the US. “We are the opposite of the Nazis,” Mr Petros threw.

Meanwhile, the US official (“border tsar”, according to Mr Trump) who undertook to handle the policy of mass expulsion of immigrants, Tom Homan said yesterday in an interview with the ABC News television network that the Immigrants may be deported to third countries if their country of origin refuses to welcome them.

At the same time, yesterday, Brazil demanded explanations from the US government for the “humiliating treatment” of 88 Brazilian irregular migrants deported by a political flight landed in Manae (north).

On the aircraft “we were not even given water, we were with hands and feet tied, they didn’t even allow us to go to the toilets,” Edgar Da Silva Moura, 31, told the French Agency, who arrived on this flight after seven months of detention in the US.

“It did a lot of heat, some fainted,” he added.

According to the Brazilian minister responsible for the human rights of Macae Ivaristos, “autistic children”, and a “disabled” world, who lived “very difficult situations” on the plane.

The justice ministry demanded that the US authorities “immediately remove the bonds” when the aircraft with the deported people landed in Manae, denouncing the “blatant breach of fundamental rights” Brazilians, according to a statement.

Brazilian government source told the French agency that this deportation had no “direct relationship” with the anti -immigration operation that began shortly after Donald Trump’s swearing -in on January 20, but “recorded (…) in a bilateral deal between Brazil. US signed in 2017 and remains in place. “
