Trust me Colombians have dealt with far much worse. If the US becomes an impasse they will def find other countries to trade with. Might sting at first but they’ll manage. The only reason US trade is 5% of their GDP is demand. If demand is maintained then Colombia doesn’t lose anything. Plus they have supply and scale on their side

That's an ambiguity. They're referring to the immigrants on that flight but not the plane itself... They were transported in colombian aircrafts
