Reposted by Connie Aemptywheel @emptywheel.bsky.social · 26/01/2025This is, IMO, most interesting ¶ of Colombian President Gustavo Petro's response to Trump. There's a lot going on, including Petro's invocation (w/mention of Aurelianos Bunedía of GGM's 100 Years of Solitude), which I hope others explain in more length. He's suggesting he has outside allies. 48984189
Reposted by Connie Aemptywheel @emptywheel.bsky.social · 26/01/2025My GUESS is that Xi Jinpeng has given Petro assurances that China will replace US purchasing of Colombian goods--primarily coffee and also flowers. And that's a way to alert Trump that China has means to sway South America (which has long been obvious but Trump has shoddy advisors). 1041563
