Argentina and Colombia have reached an agreement to de-escalate a recent diplomatic conflict that arose following inflammatory remarks made by Argentine President Javier Milei towards his Colombian counterpart. The dispute led to the expulsion of Argentine diplomats by Colombia, but both countries have now taken steps to mend their relationship.
In a joint statement released late Sunday, the foreign ministries of Argentina and Colombia expressed their commitment to overcoming differences and strengthening their ties. Colombia announced that its ambassador, who had been recalled from Buenos Aires, would be returning, while Argentina confirmed that its foreign minister would visit Bogotá. Additionally, Colombia has decided to approve Argentina's newly appointed ambassador, backing away from its earlier threat to expel Argentine diplomats.
