Tariff Threats Simmer Down with Colombia Following Migrant Deportation Dispute

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The US and Colombia almost got into a trade war over the deportation of migrants. Both Presidents were threatening tariffs on each other, but tensions have since calmed down. If President Donald Trump implemented tariffs, it would make things like coffee, flowers and raw materials more expensive for Americans. 

It all began over the weekend after President Trump said Colombia had denied access for two US planes carrying migrants into their country. Trump threatened to impose a 25-percent tariff on all good coming into the US from Colombia. Colombia’s President threatened retaliatory tariffs on the US. On Sunday, the White House said Colombia has agreed to the President’s terms. President Trump says the tariffs won’t be implemented unless Colombia does not hold up to the agreement.   

This was a first glimpse into how Trump would approach his immigration plan with other countries. Not only was it an tense moment for trade, but it also tested relations between the two countries. The US and Colombia have worked together on anti-narcotics issues. The US is Colombia’s biggest trading partner. If these tariffs on Colombia are imposed, Colombian officials said it would devastated Colombian families and farmers who produce those goods. They heavily rely on the US for their business.
