00:00So, Petro's government unleashed that the United States is imposing tariffs on countries in the region to fund the war
00:06in Iran.
00:07The foreign ministry warned that the tariff measures announced by the United States are a response to the fiscal crisis
00:14facing the White House
00:15due to the million dollars spending on the war against Iran.
00:19It noted that the Trump administration set tariffs between 10 and 12.5% on goods from 60 countries, including
00:29nations in Latin America and the Caribbean.
00:31In this regard, the Colombian government stated that more than 10 economies will be affected by the measures implemented with
00:38Brazil being the most affected, facing a 25% tariff.
00:49So, as for us now, these measures are in response to a situation, namely, a fiscal deficit and a crisis
00:56caused by excessive spending related to the war it is waging against Iran
01:00and the disproportionate military spending this country is engaging in to achieve unilateral world domination.
01:05It is very clear that this is not the way forward.
