The White House announced on Sunday night that Colombia has agreed to allow the United States to transport repatriated migrants back to the country. This decision came after two US military planes carrying deportees were initially blocked by Colombia, leading to a series of tariff threats between President Donald Trump and Colombian President Gustavo Petro.
President Petro rejected the military planes from landing, citing concerns about the treatment of Colombian migrants. In response, President Trump ordered emergency tariffs on all imports from Colombia, along with a travel ban for Colombian citizens and visa revocations for Colombian officials in the US.
