President Donald Trump confirmed night that his administration will impose tariffs on Colombian exports and cut financial assistance to the country, escalating tensions with one of Washington's closest regional partners.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on his return to Washington from Mar-a-Lago, Trump said he would formally announce the new trade measures on Monday. He then accused Colombia of failing to combat drug production, calling the country "a drug manufacturing machine" and asserting that it "has the worst president they've ever had." "He's a lunatic."
