28 Temmuz 2026Al Jazeera

Colombia's president-elect, representing a far-right agenda, has announced plans to suspend or close the country's embassy in Palestine. This move reflects a significant shift in Colombia's foreign policy, aligning more closely with certain Western nations.
The decision has raised concerns about the implications for Colombia's diplomatic relations in the Middle East.
Colombia has historically maintained a diplomatic presence in Palestine, reflecting a commitment to international recognition of Palestinian statehood. However, the election of a far-right president marks a departure from this stance, signaling a potential realignment in Colombia's international relationships.
The decision to suspend the embassy in Palestine underscores the growing influence of far-right politics in Latin America, where leaders are increasingly prioritizing alignment with U.S. foreign policy.
