US to hike tariff on Colombia, calls Petro a ‘lunatic’ — will Trump’s aid freeze push relations to the brink?

US President Donald Trump declared he will halt all aid and impose tariffs on Colombia, labeling President Gustavo Petro a "lunatic" and accusing the nation of being a drug manufacturing hub. Trump stated this action is independent of Colombia's efforts to curb drug production. Petro rejected the accusations, defending his peace initiatives and calling Trump "rude and ignorant."
