The US military has destroyed several boats in the Caribbean since September as part of Trump’s campaign to eliminate “narcoterrorists” trafficking cocaine and fentanyl. On Monday, Colombian President Gustavo Petro condemned a strike on fishermen’s boat, in which three people were killed. The vessel belonged to a “humble family” and was not involved in drug trafficking, he insisted. On Sunday, US President Donald Trump called his Colombian counterpart an “illegal drug dealer,” saying that he would raise tariffs on the South American nation and stop all payments to it. Bogota responded by recalling its ambassador from Washington on Monday, with Petro accusing Trump of being “rude and ignorant to Colombia.”
