President Donald Trump rejected the Colombian President Gustavo Petro on Sunday after the Petro regime would refuse to allow United States deportation flights to land in his country.
The United States had sent two flights from Colombian illegal foreigners from the US this weekend as part Trump’s growing deportation program. Petro argued X that the United States cannot “treat Colombian migrants as criminals”, which led to a Trump reaction.
“I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of illegal criminals, could not land in Colombia. This order was given by the socialist president of Colombia Gustavo Petro, which is already Very unpopular among its people.
“Petro denial of these flights has jeopardized national security and public security in the United States, so I told my administration to immediately take the following urgent and decisive retaliation measures,” Trump continued. .
