Gustavo Bolívar questioned Abelardo de la Espriella's speech on migration: "Now they throw them in the trash"

Colombian President Abelardo de la Espriella has announced the initiation of a new government process aimed at combating illegal immigration. The policy marks a significant shift toward stricter border and migration controls within the South American nation.

This new administrative direction aligns Colombia with tighter immigration management strategies seen in other countries. Specifically, the measures reflect precedents established by the United States and the Dominican Republic, the latter of which has maintained a broader and more extensive expression of strict migratory control for several years.
