Bogotá

Gustavo Petro is the President of Colombia, a South American country known for its coffee plantations, vibrant culture, and complex history. He has been in office since August 2022, following a long period of conflict with guerrilla groups and drug cartels. Recently, Petro's tense relationship with US President Trump escalated into threats, with Trump calling him a 'sick man' who fuels the drug trade. However, a recent phone call between the two leaders appeared to defuse the crisis, with Petro describing the conversation as 'friendly'. The situation highlights the ongoing tensions between Colombia and the US, particularly regarding Venezuela, which has been a major point of contention in recent months. With Trump's comments on military action against Colombia, the country is now facing increased scrutiny and potential instability.
