President Trump fumed on Sunday after Colombia turned back two US military flights carrying deported migrants — vowing to impose sanctions and an “emergency 25% tariff” on the South American country.

“I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia,” Trump wrote Sunday.

“This order was given by Colombia’s Socialist President Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people,” he said, adding that Petro’s decision has “jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the United States.”

In response, the president said he would enacted the “emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States,” adding that it would be raised to 50% in a week.

He also called for a travel ban, visa revocations on Colombian government officials, visa sanctions on party and government ers, enhanced customs and border protection inspections of any Colombian national and banking and financial sanctions.

These measures are just the beginning,” Trump said. “We will not allow the Colombian Government to violate its legal obligations with regard to the acceptance and return of the Criminals they forced into the United States.

These people think Biden is still in office. This is Trump's era, fvck around and find out. This will send a clear message to others not to mess with Trump. He can cripple your economy with a stroke of a pen.

Some misguided liberal apologists and those pushing the Russia fake news propaganda are celebrating in another thread. Y'all are either misinformed or uninformed. This is Trump 2.0, not 'sleepy' Biden, if you act carelessly, you’ll face the consequences.

That was 4D chess. He already knew what would happen if countries refused repatriation flights. They had this all planned out and ready to go, they were just waiting for the first svcker to try it.

This second istration is 100 times more prepared, focused, and determined to accomplish their agenda than they were the first time around.

Sick man chaining people all in the name of deportation

Trump in action. Instead of focusing on what matters, uncle is hellbent on mundane things.


Who else noticed a downtime in nairaland for about 2 mins.

I hope Colombia tells him to go do one!

Wetin dey US wey I dey find , I rather have my peace in Switzerland or Japan

I love this man😂
Imagine your own country rejecting you
That President should be held responsible
Atleast he could have demanded better treatment and safe deportation
Not rejecting his own citizens

This is absurd!

Is it the Columbian government that failed to properly secure your borders (US) and allowed people to cross illegally?


I hope this guy doesn't lose the respect of US amongst the comity of Nations with this braggish approach.

Before reparation, diplomatic agreement ought to have been reached and binding on all involved. You can't just put people on the plane and calm they are my citizens and dump them on my soil.

This is act is bullish, and anti diplomacy.

US is bullying Denmark, fellow NATO Nation already. Brazil, and now Columbia is not having it too.

Withdrawn the US from an agency it created, WHO, and out of climate change agreement...and more to come.

The US may amass so much hates and resentments than ever recorded in the past decades.

The US may be isolated at best!

Person say him no want you for him house again say make you comot dey go your house you come turn am to another issue.

Why won't Trump feel very high when country of origin is even rejecting it's citizens.

High handed racist

Mr. Trump this drum you are beating is getting too loud o.

Take am easy o.

Wetin I know sef, na garri for dinner I dey find so

Trump is a fool and he himself knew it.

What will he do? Nuke Russia

What can Colombia do to the almighty Us.
OGA learn to cooperate and obey the mighty Us for your own good

Trump is about to find out countries do not give a *uck about him no more. After the sanctions what happens?Russia is one of the most sanctioned country on earth. Yet the economy is doing well. My prayers is that this baby President wouldn’t start WW3 cos is sanctions weapons aren’t going to be effective. And you know how bullies think once their perceived advantage isn’t working.

Good ! Good!

Mtchewww.... Any small thing, impose sanctions!

The rest of the world might eventually wake up and wean themselves off whatever America claims to be doing for them.

Insulting and acting condescendingly towards fellow sovereign nations makes no sense.


The republican Senate might need to sit Mr. President down, and have a word with him.

ha ha
Una just dey carry Trump matter for head like Gala.

People like us in the US no even know some of the news on NL.
Na wa oh


Trump is dumb as fvck. Sooner or later, he will tank the US economy.

He can impose tariffs on products from Columbia but what about Americans trying to sell their products to Columbia?

All the idiots who voted for this fool will sooner or later regret it.

Who do you actually think would pay this 50% tax Columbians or Americans? Lmaooo

Even with a 200% tariff most American producers can't compete with imported goods... Trump should understand diplomatic relations

Sm waiting for the turn if Nigerians. Wait o, if some claim they are from another country nko?

I trust Tinubu, Trump can never bully him like this !!!

Asiwaju will turn back any plane coming from the USA with repatriated Nigerians aboard.

TRUTH BE TOLD, COLOMBIAN PRESIDENT IS RIGHT TO DENY ENTRY, HOW ARE YOU SURE THEY ARE COLOMBIANS ?

SOME OF THEM LEFT COLOMBIA 10 YEARS AGO TO LIVE IN MEXICO, THEN CROSSED THE BORDER FROM MEXICO.

TRUMP SHOULD DEPORT THEM TO ANTARCTICA/SIBERIA SO THAT IT WILL DISCOURAGE OTHER INTENDING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
