Colombia has recalled its ambassador from the USA, in the context of Trump's threats regarding aid and tariffs, following American military attacks in the Caribbean.

Colombia announced on Monday that it has recalled its ambassador from the United States amid a public dispute between the leaders of the two nations. Colombian President Gustavo Petro criticized American military attacks on vessels in the Caribbean, which have led to loss of life and increased tensions in the region. Donald Trump threatened to suspend aid to Colombia, accusing Petro of ties to drug trafficking.

Additionally, Trump announced plans to impose punitive tariffs. Colombia's Minister of the Interior condemned Trump's threats as a potential "invasion." Petro condemned the attacks, stating that they target innocent families. Relations between the two historically allied countries have reached a critical level, and Colombia has suspended arms purchases from the U.S. Since taking office, Petro has promoted a paradigm shift in the fight against drugs, but coca cultivation has significantly increased.
