The United States and Colombia announced late Sunday they have reached an agreement to end their tariff standoff as the latter accepted to take deported nationals, with Bogota saying it will send the presidential plane to fly back the deportees whose rejected flights catalyzed the conflict.
Colombia said on Sunday it "overcame the impasse with the U.S. government" and that two high-ranking officials will travel to Washington D.C. to follow up with the agreements. "We will continue receiving Colombians who return as deportees, guaranteeing them dignified conditions," the release added, saying the presidential plane will take back those whose flight was rejected by the country on Sunday.
