Colombian President Gustavo Petro announced a halt to intelligence sharing with the U.S. due to opposition against lethal military strikes on boats suspected of drug trafficking, which he argues constitute a crime against humanity. Criticizing former President Trump as a “barbarian,” Petro expressed concerns over U.S. military aggression in Latin America and denied accusations of complicity in drug trade. The U.S. strikes, which have reportedly killed dozens, have raised international legal concerns, prompting similar actions from the U.K. and France. Tensions continue to escalate as Trump targets regional leaders like Maduro, amid claims of armed conflict with drug cartels.
