Hey friends! Did you hear about the big news between Colombia and the United States? ๐ They almost had a trade war, but luckily, they made peace just in time! ๐
So, what happened? Well, on Sunday, January 26, the U.S. wanted to send a military plane carrying people who were being deported back to Colombia. But Colombia wasn’t so sure about accepting the plane. This caused a big disagreement between the two countries.
The U.S. even threatened to put tariffs and sanctions on Colombia if they didn’t accept the plane. Tariffs are like extra taxes on goods, which can make things more expensive. ๐ฏ That made a lot of people in Colombia worried.
But good news! Colombia and the U.S. talked things out and came to an agreement. They accepted the plane, and the trade war was avoided. Phew! ๐
Many Colombians are still a bit worried, though. They hope that everything will stay calm and that there won’t be any more conflicts.
International relationships can be complicated, but it’s important for countries to work together and solve problems peacefully. ๐ค
