‘Illegal drug leader’: Trump slaps sanctions on Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro
The U.S. imposed sanctions on Colombian President Gustavo Petro, accusing him of allowing the flow of cocaine into the U.S. and refusing to take action. Petro denies the allegations and claims his government has seized more cocaine than ever before. The move adds him to a short list of leaders hit with sanctions, while tensions between the U.S. and Latin America continue to escalate.
