Colombian Leaders Demand Impeachment, Embarrassed by Socialist President’s Trump Feud

breitbart.com

Politicians across the political spectrum in Colombia panned far-left President Gustavo Petro’s short-lived “trade war” with President Donald Trump and are calling for his impeachment and urging Congress to investigate his actions.

Petro prompted a brief diplomatic crisis on Sunday following his abrupt refusal to accept a U.S. deportation flight of Colombian migrants under grounds that the United States treats “Colombian migrants as criminals.”

President Trump responded to Petro’s actions by announcing he would impose a series of sanctions and tariffs on Colombia. Petro responded to Trump by delivering one of his characteristically long, incoherent Twitter rants, which have become a common occurrence under his administration.

Hours later, the Colombian government announced that it had “agreed to all” of President Trump’s terms and that the impasse with the United States had been “overcome.”

Foreign Minister Luis Murillo also announced that he would travel to Washington in the coming days to hold high-level meetings to follow up on the agreed upon terms. According to Colombia’s ambassador to Washington Daniel García Peña, the first deportation flights will arrive in Colombia on Monday.

Petro’s actions on Sunday, which jeopardized Colombia’s relationship with its main trade partner, prompted widespread rejection from local politicians.

Conservative Senator María Fernanda Cabal called for Petro’s impeachment on Monday, accusing Petro of not wanting to seek solutions but rather “consolidate his ideological narrative.” Cabal asserted that having the United States as an “enemy” is not a mistake, but that it is instead “part of the manual of 21st century socialism that Petro follows to the letter.
