周日，哥伦比亚拒绝两架载有被驱逐移民的美国军机返回，特朗普总统对此勃然大怒，誓言要对这个南美国家实施制裁和“25% 的紧急关税”。总统表示他将实施“对所有进入美国的商品征收 25% 的紧急关税”作为回应，并补充说将在一周内将关税提高到 50%。 他还呼吁实施旅行禁令、吊销哥伦比亚政府官员的签证、对党员和政府支持者实施签证制裁、加强对哥伦比亚国民的海关和边境保护检查以及实施银行和金融制裁。 这条愤怒的帖子是在佩特罗阻止军机抵达后发布的。 哥伦比亚总统古斯塔沃·佩特罗在社交媒体帖子中称并没有拒绝遣返航班。 相反，他要求美国使用民用飞机，并制定更好的协议来对待被驱逐者。 他承认，哥伦比亚移民不能留在一个不想要他们的国家。 但他表示，他们必须“有尊严地、尊重他们和我们的国家”返回。 “我们将用民用飞机接收我们的同胞，不会把他们当成罪犯对待。”
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.
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 members and government supporters, enhanced customs and border protection inspections of any Colombian national and banking and financial sanctions.
The angry post came after Petro blocked the military jets’ arrival.
In a social media post, Colombian President Gustavo Petro didn’t slam the door on deportation flights.
Instead, he demanded the US use civilian planes and create better protocols for how it treats deportees.
Colombian migrants can’t stay in a country that doesn’t want them, he conceded.
But they must be returned “with dignity and respect for them and for our country,” he said.
“We will receive our fellow citizens on civilian planes, without treating them like criminals.”
