00:00And following a new statement from the U.S. Secretary of War, Pete Heseth, informing of a new Pentagon attack on a vessel in the Caribbean, Colombian President Gustavo Petro took to his social media account in X to state that these illegal attacks are targeting poor youngsters in the Caribbean.
00:19There are no narco-terrorists on those boats, he said. The drug traffickers live in the U.S., Europe and Dubai. Those boats carry poor young people from the Caribbean, firing missiles when interception is possible, as Colombia does, violates the universal legal principle of proportionality and therefore constitutes murder. The families of these young people must join forces.
