U.S President Donald Trump has issued a strong warning to Colombia following the capture of Venezuela’s president Nicolás Maduro.

His remarks raised fears of possible U.S. military action in Latin America, triggering market uncertainty and putting global assets, including crypto markets, on high alert.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro strongly rejected Trump’s comments. He called the claims false and offensive, saying Colombia would not accept outside threats or pressure.

Petro also appealed to national unity, referencing his past role as a rebel to rally public support.

The crypto market often reacts quickly when major geopolitical tensions rise. In many past events, Bitcoin has fallen between 5% and 15% in a short time, as investors move away from risky assets during uncertainty.

Trade safe.
