Colombian President Gustavo Petro hits back after the U.S. imposed sanctions on him, accusing him of allowing Cocaine production to surge. In a fiery response, Petro blasts former President Trump, the CIA, and U.S. sanctions as “mafia politics,” mocks Trump for not knowing where Colombia is, and defends his government’s anti-drug efforts. The sanctions also target his wife, son, and Interior Minister Armando Benedetti. Petro condemns U.S. naval strikes in the Caribbean as extrajudicial executions and highlights his regional alliances with leaders like Maduro, Lula, Boric, and Sheinbaum. Despite Washington’s pressure, Petro insists he will continue fighting for the Colombian people, not for U.S. approval.
