“Colombia can sleep soundly.”

"I cannot see the president actually – despite what he said – extending strikes into Colombia or to Cuba."

"It is unlikely the White House would take unilateral action given their historic cooperation with Colombian security forces."

"I don't believe that there will actually be a military strike or military intervention in Colombia. But the US is, of course, already exerting influence."

"But with elections coming up in Colombia in a few months' time, it's hardly worth it for the administration to attempt to remove Petro from power."

“[Peto] sees Trump and his threats no longer as empty, but as real possibilities.”

"I don't think the fact that Colombia is a long-standing ally of the United States is necessarily going to insulate it from potential action from the Trump administration, because I don't think that that's something that he considers to be a deal breaker."

“All nations of the region must remain alert, as the threat hangs over all.”

"The US is baring its teeth at Colombia."

"[Gustavo Petro's] not going to be doing it very long."

Will the U.S. Intervene in Colombia?

Colombian President Gustavo Petro accused Ecuador of bombing targets inside Colombian territory during a televised cabinet meeting, saying 27 charred bodies had been found near the border and that an unexploded bomb had been discovered close to a peasant family's home.

Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa rejected the accusations, saying on X that his forces were "acting in our territory, not yours" and that operations targeted narco-terrorist hideouts used largely by Colombian nationals.

Experts consulted by The New York Times identified the unexploded munition found on a coca farm in Colombia's Putumayo region as an American-designed Mark-82, a 500-pound bomb widely used in modern aerial warfare.

Petro said he asked U.S. President Donald Trump to intervene diplomatically and contact Noboa to prevent escalation, saying "we do not want to go to war." Colombia was not invited to join the U.S.-backed Shield of the Americas security alliance.

The diplomatic dispute unfolded amid a broader trade war, with Ecuador having imposed a 30% tariff on Colombian imports in January — later raised to 50% — and Colombia retaliating with its own tariffs and a suspension of electricity exports to Ecuador.
