White House claims victory in a showdown with Colombia over taking deported migrants

[Collection]The White House claimed victory in its dispute with Colombia over the deportation of migrants, after President Trump threatened steep tariffs and sanctions. Tensions arose when Colombia's President Gustavo Petro rejected US military flights carrying deported migrants, citing mistreatment concerns. In response, Trump imposed a 25 per cent tariff on Colombian imports, with a potential increase to 50 per cent. The situation highlighted the Trump administration's stance on immigration and its use of economic pressure.
