Trump imposes 25-pc tariffs on Colombia after 2 U.S. deportation flights denied landing

Washington, Jan 27 (UNI) U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday announced 25-percent tariffs on all goods imported from Colombia after the Latin American country refused to allow the landing of two flights carrying deported immigrants.
"I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia," Trump posted on his social media platform Truth Social.
Colombian President Gustavo Petro's rejection of these flights has "jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the United States," Trump wrote, noting that he has directed his administration to immediately take "urgent and decisive retaliatory measures."
