00:00Colombian President Gustavo Pedro declared that his country's military forces will no
00:04longer depend on U.S. weapons, consolidating the sovereignty of the country's army.
00:09During a Council of Ministers' meeting in the Syria of Bogotá, Pedro questioned the
00:13U.S. government's announcement that Colombia had been certified as a key ally in the fight
00:18against drug trafficking, highlighting his administration's work against drug cultivation.
00:23He cited the high drug consumption rate in the U.S. and uttered his inability to resolve
00:28the problem.
00:29The Colombian President denounced the United States' attacks on Venezuelan fishing boats,
00:33calling them disproportionate killings that undermine the region's integrity and sovereignty.
00:46The Colombian Army and its military forces are no longer dependent on U.S. weapons, no
00:53more handouts or gifts.
00:54They have been decertified, that is the decision.
00:58The Colombian Army is better off buying its own weapons or making them with its own resources,
01:06because otherwise it will not be an army of national sovereignty.
01:10That is a consequence.
01:11The police stopped buying clogged guns, which were used to kill the senator.
01:17They were sold in a state in the United States, transferred to Florida, and from there they
01:25arrived in Colombia.
01:26They arrived in Colombia, who knows how and were used to kill.
