Let us break it down
1.The Us sends deportees back to Colombia
2.The Colombian president rejected the deportees and sends them back to the US
3.The US blocks visa application to Colombia and imposes tarriffs on all Colombian exports to the Us literally cripple the Colombia economy
4.The Colombia personally sends his own presidential jets to pick up the same deportees from the Us inorder to undo the economic bomb


From the above summary which Latin America will want to try the Us

No, you deliberately missed an item that should be number 4:

The USA engaged Colombia government diplomatically on the need to return the deportees to Colombia and allowed Colombia to profile them.

That should be your number 4 before the item you have on number 4.

See CNN:

The US began using military aircraft to return recent border crossers back to their countries of origin last week. On Thursday, the US returned migrants to Guatemala using military planes.

White House border czar Tom Homan said Sunday he expects military flights transporting deported migrants to continue daily, partly as a message to other nations.

The Department of Defense “has helped administrations before, but not at this level. So it’s a force multiplier, and it’s sending a strong signal to the world. Our border’s closed,” Homan told ABC News.

President Donald Trump on Sunday announced retaliatory tariffs on Colombia after its president blocked US military deportation flights from landing, the first instance of Trump using economic pressure to force other nations to fall in line with his mass deportation plans since he took office last week.


Earlier in the day, Colombian President Gustavo Petro announced he had blocked two US military flights carrying migrants heading toward the country and called on the United States to establish better protocols in its treatment of migrants. Petro also left the door open to receiving repatriated migrants traveling on civilian planes.

Following Petro’s announcement, Trump criticized him on social media while announcing a slate of new sanctions and policies targeting Colombia, including “emergency 25% tariffs” on all imports from the country that will be raised to 50% in a week, a “travel ban” for Colombian citizens, and a revocation of visas for Colombian officials in the US along with “all allies and supporters.”

Trump also ordered stricter inspections of cargo shipments arriving from Colombia, along with banking and finance sanctions and visa sanctions on “all Party Members, Family Members, and Supporters of the Colombian Government.”


“These measures are just the beginning. We will not allow the Colombian Government to violate its legal obligations with regard to the acceptance and return of the Criminals they forced into the United States!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a Sunday statement that Colombian officials had approved two military flights carrying migrants to Colombia and then revoked the authorization once they were en route, as CNN reported earlier.

“Colombian President Petro had authorized flights and provided all needed authorizations and then canceled his authorization when the planes were in the air. As demonstrated by today’s actions, we are unwavering in our commitment to end illegal immigration and bolster America’s border security,” Rubio said in a statement.

CNN had previously reported Trump administration officials were surprised and frustrated when Petro said he was blocking US deportation flights from entering the country. Sources within the Colombian government were also caught by surprise by Petro’s post.


CNN has reached out to the Colombian government for comment.

Trump advances his agenda in opening days of presidency

Trump’s reaction to Colombia’s rejection of repatriated citizens marks the first major clash with another country over immigration issues since he began his second term.

“You can’t go out there and publicly defy us in that way,” a Trump administration official told CNN. “We’re going to make sure the world knows they can’t get away with being nonserious and deceptive.”


Later Sunday, Petro called on US citizens living in Colombia illegally to “regularize” their stay, without offering specifics. “American citizens who wish to do so can be in Colombia, I believe in human freedom,” he wrote on X, adding: “You will never see me burning a US flag or carrying out a raid to return handcuffed illegal immigrants to the US.” Petro also offered his presidential plane to help repatriate deportees from the US who were set to arrive in the country Sunday morning.

The US began using military aircraft to return recent border crossers back to their countries of origin last week. On Thursday, the US returned migrants to Guatemala using military planes.

White House border czar Tom Homan said Sunday he expects military flights transporting deported migrants to continue daily, partly as a message to other nations.

The Department of Defense “has helped administrations before, but not at this level. So it’s a force multiplier, and it’s sending a strong signal to the world. Our border’s closed,” Homan told ABC News.


The US is also asking Mexico for help repatriating its nationals via land ports of entry along the US-Mexico border, though Mexico also appeared to turn around a military flight heading for the country last week.

Brazil joined Colombia on Sunday in condemning the Trump administration’s handling of repatriated migrants on deportation flights, denouncing the treatment of Brazilian nationals who arrived in the country Friday as “degrading.”

Brazilian authorities said they found 88 handcuffed deportees on a US flight headed to Belo Horizonte, Brazil, that landed in Manaus due to a “technical error.” Brazilian officials did not authorize the plane to continue on due to “the use of handcuffs and chains, the poor condition of the aircraft, with a faulty air conditioning system, among other problems,” and the migrants were transported to Manaus on a Brazilian Air Force flight.

Which way
Or the president buckled under threat of incoming economic doom
Or rather the presidency of Colombia got so much calls about the implication of his actions that he decided to solve his problems

The Colombian president made his point and USA will be more careful with deportation. They will engage the countries of destination effectively going forward.

Between me and the president of Colombia,,who is hurt the more?
And what has the resulting turned into for everyone?
Am I the Colombian exporter one that is exporting to the united states

Ask the Colombians.

They had their way after all. The deportees have been identified and profiled appropriately so they can now be transported home by the Colombian government.

The president of Colombia even offered his presidential aircraft to transport the deportees back to Colombia.

Learn to confront bullies.

…and would you believe it. The joke of a Colombian president has made a u turn and offered to bring the deportees home.

Know which battles to fight, don’t engage in a fight you are not prepared to fight to finish.

The USA has been engaging Colombia government diplomatically over the issue since they returned the flights.

The issue was not rejecting them, I believe the problem was profiling them.

I believe that has now been done.

baralatie:
Exactly they are taking 50% tarriffs on all Colombian exports to the USA and we have visa ban on top of that and only God knows
All because of how Colombia turned back illegal migrants who are Colombians.
Try explaining that to legal colombians

Are you a Colombian? Why are you pained for them? Did they tell you they don't know what they are doing?

And the Colombia replied the gra gra
And now the whole of Colombia is involved in a gra gra fight that Colombia could have easily resolved

Never go down quietly for a Bully, you will continue to be bullied by him.

From the day you say "No" to the bully. You will earn your respect and the bully will stop harassing you.

Take this shit from Trump's and then, you will have to take more.

Coffe and tea alone has Africa exporters, Mexico, India on the ready to flood and gain any market opening in the us.
Edible has a whole lot of Latin American countries like Chile,,mexico,brazil, Argentina dancing awilo that their market share is quadrupled

Whatever the case is, the TIT for TAT is given provided Trump follows through with his threat.

Never, let a bully get away without standing up to him.

Starzo:
Bro stop all this talk.... Colombia cannot stand against US in anything

They'll become worse than Venezuela if they are not careful

Let's not use our mouths to encourage others into their doom

The USA will have to engage diplomatic relations with Colombia to return the deportees.

Read the extract below:

Colombia is not a major trading partner with the United States, shipping roughly $14 billion worth of goods in 2023, the most recent full year of data according to Comtrade, an authority on trade data. Most of Colombia’s exports to the United States were minerals, oil, metals and coffee.

Coffee prices have shot higher over the past year, and this move by the Trump administration could eventually make prices even more expensive for American consumers. That’s because importers pay the tariffs and often pass the increased prices on to consumers.

Although tariffs can be an effective negotiating tool, they are generally disliked by economists, who believe they are inflationary and can ignite trade wars, which send prices even higher. That is not a universally held view, though. Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, recently told CNBC that if tariffs help with national security and cause a little bit of inflation than people should “get over it.”

That is why Colombia immigration office,foreign office and the embassy should have worked in liasion with the us upon arrival and a communication line established but we have this

No sir, not upon arrival.

That collaboration with the USA government should be before arrival; before deportation.

You need to get the correction.

KanuSE:
Westerners don't play like y'all Nigerians just go for the alternatives. They're so accustomed to having quality, so it's quality or nothing. It's cultural for them, it's a way of life.

You guys can continue to settle for the alternatives and get used to substandard goods.

Then they should pay for it. Simple

baralatie:
Colombia export tea,coffe,edible fruits,flowers,light metals and others agro stuffs

How will the us suffer when coffe and tea alone competing nations are shouting okpe o

If the USA market really need these items, they will have to pay the extra margin (including the 25% increase) if they must have it.

For now, the Colombia market can redirect the left over unsellable to USA to other countries.

They have to prove a point to the sick and stupid president in USA.

For now.

baralatie:
Why pay for an expensive product from America when there is serious alternative from Africa and neighbouring Latin American countries of Mexico,Argentina and brazil

Thanks for that observation. Naturally, when an item becomes very expensive and unreachable, you go for the alternatives.

Almiron:
This doesn't apply when you're dealing with hardened criminals, who has been terrorizing your country for a long time. Mexico, Brazil , Guatemala and others received their packages in good faith. Albeit, Brazil government ranted afterwards. The truth is that they don't want their criminals back. It's just common sense. The sanction will change his mind, he will surely receive em now or face sanctions.

You (USA) are the one that classified them as hardened criminals.

Those countries you intend to deport them to deserve to know who the deportees are, the type of persons they are, if they are wanted criminals back in the country before they even departed to America, if they should be arrested upon arrival and taken into custody for trial, if they require special care upon arrival.

Look, for a lot of reasons, the deportee, even if it is one person or devil himself must be identified and profiled by the country you are deportating him/her to.

Simple

udemzyudex:
Lol.. Check well before you talk about this TIT for TAT.

It will affect Colombia more than US, Colombia largest trade partner is US.
It's just like Benin republic trying to do a TIT for TAT with Nigeria, it will have little or no effect on Nigeria.

I hope you understand.

So, who will pay more for the goods coming from Colombia?

baralatie:
Colombia will do tit for tat with the us of wetin economic rofo rofo?

You people are funny?

Why not. Must Colombians sell to them? Besides what products does Colombia actually sell to the USA?

It may also interest you to know that the Americans will suffer more in this matter than Colombia.

Angelfrost:
I know... I'm perfectly in support of deportation, but why treat them anyhow?!!

No American being deported would be treated with such disregard no matter his criminal records or deeds.

Diplomacy matters in everything.

In fact, if you arrest and intend to deport an American (US), you will inform their embassy and they will offer to pick the person up from your custody and take the person back to the US themself.

Us Embassy in Nigeria deserves to know so they can either return the person themself or prepare to receive the person in the USA.

That is how it is done.

ednut1:
why are they rejecting their own citizens? Usa say dem no want

They did not reject their citizens. Read about the matter

udemzyudex:
To those commending the Columbia government, I hope you'll help out on this.

There is no big deal in what he has done. Every country has a policy of TIT for TAT. If he does 25% then Colombia can do same or more to USA goods coming into Colombia.

Colombia can apply that policy too and wait it out till there is a diplomatic cooperation on the deportation between USA and Colombia.

Let's see how many countries Trump can do that to simultaneously. Trump is just sick in the head. He should stop being a Bully and do the right thing with deportation.

What is the business you have with his father? That is very crude and disrespectful

jayce232:
Please don't make me laugh @bold..lol
Which country will cater for transportation?
You think if their country was that caring, they will leave in the first place? Do u think any country will deport US citizens & US will reject them? There is no laid down protocol in deporting illegal immigrants! In lawless countries illegal immigrants are locked up in underground prisons or killed & some are even injected with drugs before deportation. There is nothing crude about trump approach so long there is no war going on in those countries.

Mind u I'm not in support of their deportation, because if their country was good, they won't be in the US as illegal immigrants. But I have a problem with u people trying to blame trump on this, it is either u people are being sentimental or talking from a point of hate. No country all over the world pampers illegal immigrants. Countries like North Korea or Russia can even execute illegal immigrants.

I don't agree with you and you are free to laugh about it, if you wish. The bill for the cost of using the USA military aircraft to carry them to the various countries is on the USA, in case you don't know.

However, if USA corresponded with those countries through their embassies, there will be proper planning of their deportation and care giving upon receiving those deportees.

Most of the deportees will be traumatized upon arrival so there must be essential planning, care giving and accommodation prepared for them.

You are not involved in immigrantion so you can't understand.

Mathewrichard99:
That's not right my brother , US can and should dump them as long as they are your citizens. They aren't strangers but nationals of those countries, if you reject your own people cos of that stupid excuse, then the shame is on you......
That's millions embarrassment to those nations not treating their citizens well for them to have japa into US.....make your country accommodative enough for your citizens. Kudos to Trump......kick them all out.....vagabond illegal aliens....







quote author=Wallade post=133882455]

Oga, it should be done before flying them in at all.

How many countries do you fly into without proper identification? In this special case of deportation, those citizens of those countries should be profiled by their countries for a lot of reasons.

The countries should know who is being deported to determine what level of care and attention to give them upon arrival.

You can't just dump them on the country and make the countries look stupid and unprepared upon arrival

Are you even listening to get the point. None of those countries is rejecting their people but they are asking to be given the opportunity to identify and profile their people before deportation.

They are human beings and deserve to be caredfor upon entry into their country and the way to plan and execute that is to profile them before dumping them on those countries.
Simple.

jaxxy:
Agreed but that can be done by consulate or immigrations before or after landing.
