BOGOTA, JUN.8, (ST)– Colombian President Gustavo Petro announced today that his country would halt its exports of coal to “Israel” as the offensive on the Gaza Strip continues.
Taking to his X account, the Colombian president wrote, “We will stop our coal exports to “Israel” until the massacre ends.”
Colombia joins the list of nations taking decisive diplomatic measures against “Israel” due to its ongoing aggression on Gaza.
Last May, the Colombian president declared the severance of diplomatic ties with Israel, citing “a government and prime minister inclined towards genocide.”
Petro has leveled harsh criticism against Netanyahu, labeling him as a “perpetrator of genocide” in Gaza.
The Colombian president has also requested his country’s inclusion in South Africa’s lawsuit before the International Court of Justice, accusing “Israel” of committing genocide.
