Charles Pellegrin is pleased to welcome Tiziano Breda, Latin America & the Caribbean Senior Analyst at ACLED. President Donald Trump is set to welcome Colombian President Gustavo Petro to the White House for talks only weeks after threatening military action against the South American country and accusing the leader of pumping cocaine into the United States. US administration officials say the meeting will focus on regional security cooperation and counternarcotics efforts. Mr Breda says 'Petro's utmost priority is to straighten Trump's view of the country' and seek out effective solutions to take on armed rebels and organized crime.
