After announcing 25% tariffs on US imports, Petro says "We have never refused to take migrants and we have made efforts to stop migration. ... But do not demand that I accept deportees from the US handcuffed and arriving on military flights. We are not anyone's colony."

The easy offramps seem gone.
Tweet from Gustavo Petro: English translation: "We have never refused to accept migrants and we have tried to stop migration. The stupid blockade of Venezuela was what led to millions of migrants in the US. But do not demand that I accept deportees from the US, handcuffed and on military aircraft. We are not anyone's colony." Spanish original: "Nosotros nunca nos hemos negado a recibir migrantes y hemos procurado detener la migración. El estúpido bloqueo a Venezuela fue el que desencadenó millones de personas migrantes en los EEUU. Pero no me exijan recibir los deportados de EEUU, esposados y en avión militar. Nosotros no somos colonia de nadie."
