Secretary Rubio Authorizes Visa Restrictions on Colombian Government Officials and their Immediate Family Members

The State Department will continue to enforce and prioritize an America First agenda. Following President Petro’s refusal to accept two repatriation flights he previously authorized, Secretary Rubio immediately ordered a suspension of visa issuance at the U.S. Embassy Bogota consular section.

Secretary Rubio is now authorizing travel sanctions on individuals and their families, who were responsible for the interference of U.S. repatriation flight operations. Measures will continue until Colombia meets its obligations to accept the return of its own citizens. America will not back down when it comes to defending its national security interests.

"Under the authority of INA 212 (a)(3)(C), Secretary Rubio can render inadmissible to the United States any alien whose entry “would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States.”

Visa restrictions would apply to Colombian officials and their immediate family members who meet the criteria.

Ladies and Gentlemen.

Let's welcome Colombia to the BRICS family.

I hope this trend continues. It'll only push more countries to de-dollarize and join the BRICS.

All this gra gra and arrogance na because say other countries still dey use US dollars. We'll see if they can still sanction anyone if everyone starts using their own currencies.

The US is heavily reliant on alliances and partnerships and can NEVER survive on it's own.

This confrontation is totally unnecessary but I understand that illegal migrants need to be treated with respect for their dignity when deporting them. U.S. should do better. Even Nigerian deportees from other countries carry their bags with them not to talk of Latino deportees getting handcuffed throughout the journey like criminals.

Didn't you get the gist ?

They are handcuffed because they are actually criminals with multiple rap sheets

Lol. You changed your mouth quickly (I thought you were beating your chest over the 50% tariffs imposed by Colombia. Do you think it is easy to de-dollarize? Do you know the chain of benefits that would be lost? Lol! Little kids getting all excited in their one-room apparent.
