Exclusive | Interview with Colombia's Presidential Advisor Victor de Currea-Lugo

Colombia’s evolving foreign policy under President Gustavo Petro has reshaped the country’s role on the international stage, particularly regarding Palestine, Gaza, and broader West Asia affairs. Presidential Advisor for the Middle East Dr. Victor de Currea-Lugo outlines Colombia’s principled shift toward international law, human rights, and multilateral cooperation, while distancing from decades of US-aligned positions.

The discussion explores Colombia’s decision to support South Africa’s case at the International Court of Justice, the push for sanctions and humanitarian measures, and efforts to build a unified Global South response. It also examines growing geopolitical tensions in Latin America, concerns over US military escalation in the Caribbean, and the potential regional consequences for Venezuela and neighboring states.

Beyond immediate crises, the conversation highlights the erosion of global diplomacy, the struggle for sovereignty, and the determination to defend international law amid rising conflicts.
