US, Colombia Recall Top Diplomats as Rift Grows Amid Coup Attempt Claims | Firstpost America | N18G The United States and Colombia have recalled their top diplomats amid a sharp downturn in bilateral relations. President Trump's administration cited “baseless and reprehensible” statements from Colombia’s leadership, while President Gustavo Petro responded by recalling Colombia’s ambassador from Washington. The row follows an investigation into alleged efforts to pressure Petro’s government using US support. Earlier flashpoints included US deportation flights, extradition refusals, and Petro’s overhaul of Colombia’s US-backed drug policy. Once key allies in Latin America, the two nations now face rising tensions, with strategic cooperation under strain and both sides reassessing the future of their long-standing partnership. --- United States | Donald Trump | Gustavo Petro | Colombia | Firstpost America | Eric Ham | War | Geopolitics | Global Economy | Firstpost | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | Trending News #usa #donaldtrump #gustavopetro #colombia #firstpostamerica #ericham #war #geopolitics #economy #firstpost #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #internationalnews #trendingnews Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
