Colombian President Gustavo Petro claimed a recent U.S. military strike in the Caribbean targeted a Colombian boat with Colombian citizens. The White House has refuted this assertion, labeling it "baseless" and reaffirming Colombia as a key strategic partner. The incident fuels ongoing debate and criticism regarding U.S. military actions in the region and President Trump's stance on drug cartels and Venezuelan leadership. A Senate resolution to limit such strikes narrowly failed.
