The President Annouces severe economic retaliation against Colombia for refusing two Repatriation Flights.
President Petro of Colombia said he wouldn’t allow the flights in until Trump establishes a protocol for the dignified treatment of migrants, something Colombia also briefly did in 2023. Heavily impacted will be the coffee trade. If I recall correctly, ~17% of US coffee imports come from Colombia and ~40% of Colombia coffee exports are to the US.
