美國與哥倫比亞貿易戰危機化解

美國和哥倫比亞在經歷了一場緊張的對峙後,勉強避免了一場貿易戰。此前,哥倫比亞同意接受來自美國的遣返航班。這場爭端始於哥倫比亞最初拒絕允許兩架載有被遣返移民的美國軍用飛機降落,促使美國總統唐納德·特朗普威脅對哥倫比亞官員實施高額關稅、簽證限制和旅行禁令。白宮在周日晚間宣布,哥倫比亞已同意「無限制或延遲」接受這些航班,從而暫停了擬議的報復措施。

哥倫比亞總統古斯塔沃·佩特羅早些時候堅持要求被遣返的移民應受到尊嚴對待,並應乘坐民用飛機而非軍用飛機返回。佩特羅批評了特朗普的做法,指責他將哥倫比亞人視為「劣等種族」,並誓言抵抗美國的壓力。作為對特朗普威脅的回應,佩特羅下令對美國商品徵收25%的進口關稅,強調保護哥倫比亞的尊嚴和主權的必要性。然而,經過談判,哥倫比亞同意接受遣返航班,外交部長路易斯·吉爾伯托·穆里略表示,該國將繼續接收被遣返的移民,同時確保「尊嚴的條件」。

這一解決方案突顯了美國與拉丁美洲國家在移民政策上日益緊張的關係。特朗普政府優先考慮嚴格的移民執法,包括使用軍用飛機進行遣返,這一舉措引起了地區領導人的批評。佩特羅最初的抵抗和隨後的妥協,凸顯了在面對美國壓力時,國家自豪感與外交實用主義之間的微妙平衡。該協議還引發了對特朗普移民打壓的更廣泛影響的質疑,特別是對美國在該地區的盟友的影響。
