U.S. revokes Colombian President Gustavo Petro’s visa, saying he incited violence and called for American soldiers to defy orders.

The US plans to cancel Colombian President Gustavo Petro's visa, claiming he incited violence and urged American soldiers to disobey orders. The US Department of State stated, “We will revoke Petro's visa due to his reckless and incendiary actions.”

Petro protested in New York City against US support for Israel, accusing the US of breaching diplomatic immunity. He criticized the US for revoking his visa after denouncing US and Israeli military actions.

Political analysts warn that Petro's actions could isolate Colombia internationally. The US recently decertified Colombia in the fight against drug trafficking, a decision that places Colombia alongside Venezuela and others. Colombia is set to hold elections next year, with expectations of a shift toward more market-friendly policies.

The State Department revoked Colombian President Gustavo Petro’s visa, the agency announced on social media Friday night, accusing the South American leader of urging “soldiers to disobey orders and incite violence” in a New York rally.

Petro had called on American and Israeli troops not to sanction a genocide in Gaza, and called for a fighting force larger than that of the U.S. and Israel combined to come to the enclave’s aid, in front of a cheering New York City crowd on Friday.

The Colombian president confirmed his visa had been taken away in a post on X Saturday, in which he accused the U.S. government of “no longer honor[ing] international law.”
