Colombian President Petro Bans U.S. Military Deportation Flights, Demands Dignified Treatment Amid Trump's Immigration Policy
Jan 26, 2025, 12:21 PM
Colombian President Gustavo Petro has banned U.S. planes carrying deported Colombian migrants from entering the country, citing the need for the U.S. to treat migrants with dignity rather than as criminals. Petro's statement comes in response to the U.S. government's plan under President Donald Trump to deport undocumented immigrants daily using military aircraft. Petro emphasized that the U.S. must establish a protocol for the dignified treatment of migrants before Colombia will accept them back. This move is part of a broader context of U.S. immigration policy changes, including the declaration of a national emergency at the southern border and the reactivation of the 'Remain in Mexico' program.
