In response to the tariff threat, Colombia agreed to allow military aircraft carrying deported migrants. The US, in turn, agreed not to impose the threatened penalties. The Colombian Foreign Ministry released a statement with a more measured and diplomatic tone, indicating that the country had "overcome the impasse" in the US migrant row.

1. On both sides, they made mistakes. They insulted each other, and they took decisions that should not have been taken.
2. Fortunately, they ended up doing the right thing, which they should have done from the beginning – sit down and talk.

1. I don't like your oil, Trump, you're going to wipe out the human species because of greed.
2. He can, with his economic power and arrogance, try to stage a coup against me, as they did with Allende. But I stand firm in my beliefs. I survived torture, and I'll withstand him.
3. I will never allow Colombians to be brought in handcuffs on flights. Marco, if officials from the Foreign Ministry allowed this, it would never be under my direction.

3. You've got to understand, these are murderers, drug lords, gang members, just the toughest people you've ever met or seen.
4. We were being scolded because we had them in shackles in an airplane and he [Petro] said, 'this is no way to treat people,'
