“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?

Petro said during a televised cabinet meeting that 27 charred bodies had been found near the border and alleged that Ecuador was responsible, saying the incidents could not be attributed to illegal armed groups, which he argued do not have aircraft. He presented no evidence to support the claim.

Ecuador's President Daniel Noboa rejected the accusations, saying "President Petro, your statements are false; we are acting in our territory, not yours." Foreign Affairs Minister Gabriela Sommerfeld confirmed Ecuador maintains military operations against irregular groups located within its own borders.

New York Times journalists found an unexploded munition in Colombia's Putumayo region, less than a mile from the Ecuador border. Experts identified it as an American-designed Mark-82, a 500-pound bomb, with a 13-year-old witness saying she saw two planes fly over the farm on March 3.

A joint U.S.-Ecuador operation on March 3 targeted a camp linked to the Comandos de la Frontera, a FARC dissident group, in Ecuador's Sucumbíos province, using fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, drones and river boats. The U.S. Southern Command described the operation as "successful."

Ecuador imposed a 30% tariff on Colombian imports in January, later raised to 50%, citing insufficient action against drug trafficking. Colombia retaliated with its own tariffs on 73 products and suspended electricity exports, deepening tensions between the two countries.
