**U.S. Revokes Colombian President’s Visa After Incendiary UN Speech**

**New York, September 27, 2025** – The United States State Department announced yesterday that it will revoke the visa of Colombian President Gustavo Petro following a series of controversial statements made during the 80th United Nations General Assembly. The decision comes after President Petro, speaking at a pro-Palestinian demonstration outside UN headquarters on Friday, urged U.S. soldiers to “disobey the orders of [President Donald] Trump” and instead “obey the orders of humanity.”

“We will revoke Petro’s visa due to his reckless and incendiary actions,” the State Department stated in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

President Petro, known for his vocal criticism of Israeli policies and the war in Gaza, also delivered a scathing rebuke of President Trump during his address to the General Assembly on Tuesday. He accused the U.S. leader of complicity in genocide in Gaza and called for criminal proceedings regarding U.S. missile strikes targeting suspected drug-running boats in the Caribbean.

“I ask all the soldiers of the army of the United States not to point their guns at people,” Petro said at the rally.

The Colombian President’s social media activity further amplified his pro-Palestinian stance, with reposts of video clips showing him speaking at the New York gathering. “Free Palestine. If Gaza falls, humanity dies,” he posted on X.

President Petro’s office and Colombia’s Foreign Ministry have not yet issued an official response to the U.S. State Department’s announcement.
This action marks a significant escalation in diplomatic tensions between the two nations.
