US imposes sanctions on left-wing Colombian President Petro

The US imposes sanctions on left-wing Colombian President Gustavo Petro for failing to curb drug trafficking and allowing cartels to thrive. This decision stems from a growing diplomatic dispute between Colombia and the Trump administration over drug policy and efforts to combat drug production. Despite Petro's defense of his administration's efforts against drug trafficking, the US Treasury cites a surge in cocaine production in Colombia as justification for the sanctions, impacting Petro, his family, and other government officials.
