Except this time the US didn't get what they want.
They wanted the media show of showing migrants in chains to spread fear, and was stopped.

Petro never said no to deportation, it was always about the conditions.
The only thing Trump did on this media war was that he made the announcement first and said Petro bent the knee, and everyone ate it.
That said US military planes are only being denied airspace in Mexico, not the rest of Latam as far as I know.
Finally can create an account to say:
FFS people Colombia didn't agree or surrender to Trump's terms on deportation. Petro wanted deportees to be treated humanly and not be chained like animals.
He got it. And didn't get any sanctions.
How is this a loss for Petro or Colombia? Or a win for Trump?
I beg to differ, tariffs have an economic impact but it doesn't mean they will be used solely for economic reasons.
They are the main tool the US is using for geopolitical meddling at the moment.
