Colombian President Gustavo Petro called for a criminal investigation against former U.S. President Donald Trump for the deadly U.S. military strikes on boats in the Caribbean. Petro claims the attacks, which killed at least 17 people, targeted innocent civilians, not drug traffickers as the U.S. claimed. He accused Trump of criminalizing poverty and migration, while Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro condemned the actions as an attempt to overthrow his government. The U.S. has justified the strikes as necessary to stop drug trafficking, but details remain scarce.
