It would only cost more for Americans if they are the only country exporting to America. If not their stuff would just be more expensive and less desirable.

Columbia's (and Mexico's) president objects to US military planes with immigrants landing in their country without any warning or permission. He said, get on the phone and set-up protocols (like a responsible adult). The US would not allow another country to land their military planes (or even be in our airspace) in our country without protocols in place.

No country should allow the US deportation planes to land. It would really screw his plan. Soon he'll have tariffs on every country. Imagine how much things are going to cost.

I would not welcome them either. Why would anyone want to accept a bunch of criminals back into their country after dumping them into the U.S.

What's the orange idiot going to do when these countries band together and ban American imports. America would come to a screeching halt, crash and then catch fire while he goes golfing claiming fake news and it's all a hoax.

i would not give any country money

Why would Colombia want their criminals back? We have a real madman running our country, coffee comes from this country.

I'm sure all you guys would have loved to follow Kamala straight to hell. President Trump is trying to do something for our country and you guys are still stuck on stupid I'm not a Democrat or a republican I'm just not stuck on stupid.

Honestly how is it possible that almost all of Trump's supporters lack critical thinking, they are just emotional babies like him. How is it hard to think that having such Tariffs affects consumer price at the same rate. How dumb can you be not to see this? I also understand other countries to denay the landing of military planes without schedule or agreed up on time and place. How would US feel if another country just sends their military plane without any information . This is wild.

He knows the USA is powerful and no countries would challenge him, I’m pretty sure Colombia president will change is mind in the coming hours.\nI wish we have a leader like Trump in my beautiful Africa , we would be soooo far ahead by now??.\nThe ones we had were either killed by the west or put in jail.

One thing to note is if there are high tarrifs on one country..as a business person I would choose the second lowest country to get the same product(if the product is rare and unique to that country obviously gov will exclude that from tarrifs)...why would I pay 25% extra...\n\nSince US has money many countries are willing to do business...So it's finally a loss to Colombia or any other country.

I would like to see Trump issue economic incentives for countries like Cuba, Venezuela, Colombia, etc. Maybe if the quality of life improved for civilians in these countries they would be happy to stay where they are.

And so, he is just pretty much making Colombian coffee expensive for no reason at all in response to Colombia rejecting his US military flights full of immigrants. Like......what the hell, dude? What. The. Hell? Well, uhhhh......of course it's not gonna Colombia at all really. But uhhhh......\n\nIt will REALLY just only hurt the United States of America for the time being. Yep. He is hurting the very same country that he is supposed to properly govern right now, ladies and gentlemen. OK, now, he can just now even try applying economic pressure to Mexico and Canada to try and get what he personally wants. BUT in the end, it's gonna make their own products even expensive as well. So uhhhhhh, if I were Trump right now, I would just seriously put a complete stop to all of this AND start doing my job right for once.

No offense, since I don’t know if you guys drink coffee or not, but You do realize other countries export to the US. Have never heard of Guatemalan, Brazil, Peru, Marrocan, Ethiopia, Belgium, Costa Rican coffee? Arab countries etc. They all make great coffee. Coffee is not only from Colombia. There’s so various countries producing great coffee .\n\nThey all export coffee to the US. Unless you ONLY like Colombian coffee this shouldn’t be a problem. I’m sure this benefits other countries to expand. Each with distinct flavors and aromas. \n\nStarbucks imports coffee from over 30 different countries from Latin America, Africa, Middle East. \n\nIt’s like if Trump puts a 25% tariff on French wine. I love my French wine and it would suck. But I still love my Italian and Washington State wine.\n\nBananas like mention also come from other countries as well like Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras etc. \nBasically other countries exist that benefit from this. The only problem I could see is they can’t produce enough . Which I doubt. And I’m sure African countries or other countries can under cut prices if others try to inflate prices just to get market share in the US. \n\nAlthough, coffee prices are not only determined by supply and demand. Country of origin and brand also plays a role. Like I said it’s like wine. I love my cheap Washington State Merlots and my Italian Chianti, but people still buy over price California and French wine .

Does anyone wonder why a country would not take its own citizens back? Telling isn’t it.

Sovereign countries not willing to help Trump disrespecting them. Who would have thunk….

How much money wasted to attempt to fly folks back to countries w/ lack of preparation.. should have had agreement ahead of time instead of thinking a country would let you land w/o prior agreement.. idiots..

THIS IS INSANE. WE DO NOT NEED THIS IN OUR COUNTRY WHEN WE HAVE SO MANY HOMELESS AMERICANS TO DEAL WITH. THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE WILLING TO BREAK OUR LAWS TO GET IN THE COUNTY.... THEY WILL DEFINITELY CONTINUE TO BREAK THEM ONCE THEY ARE HERE. MY HEART GOES OUT TO THEM ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE HUMAN BEINGS AND OBVIOUSLY LIVE IN A PLACE THAT IS TERRIBLE ENOUGH TO MAKE THEM RUSH OUR BORDERS HOWEVER... THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE... ALSO WE KNOW THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RELEASE OF THE PRISONS IN THOSE SOUTH AMERICAN AND CENTRAL AMERICAN PRISONS WHERE THEY TOLD THE PRISONERS AND MENTAL HEALTH PATIENTS IN THOSE COUNTRIES THAT IF THEY CAN GET ACROSS THE AMERICAN BORDER THEY WILL BE FREE AND THEY WERE SHIPPED TO THE SOUTHERN BORDER AND GIVEN FREE SHOT AT A LIFE IN AMERICA AND NOT IN PRISON.... WHAT WOULD YOU DO???? YOU WOULD DO ANYTHING TO GET ACROSS THAT BORDER ALSO

Legal is legal. Illegal is illegal. Trump is correct, if you love your country, protect from illegal. If they want to then process thru legal documents.. so that America government can have proper data and deal what would be the best. Otherwise it would mess up because uncontrollable...

The irony here is that if roles were reversed and america was a crap country while venezuela and south america were great countries nd american citizens were trying to get into those countries, none of these ppl would say let americans in nd we would be either shot at by those countries govts or jailed and tortured nd eventually deported. Ive had enough of this nonsense. Main reason i voted for donald trump was to put an end to this bs. Sorry. Border closed!

I wonder if they thought about where they would live, or how will they support themselves. The United States an afford to house and feed them. This country has enough homeless people, and people on public assistance.

This is an INVASION! This means WAR!......as any other country would consider this kind of crap!\nRubber b*llets? Mass pepper spray? Tear gas? Shock b*mbs? \nGET OUT OF MY COUNTRY! You bring NOTHING good to America! A herd of toxic violence. \nTHIS BEHAVIOR PROVES WHY NO COUNTRY WANTS this kind.\nHigh voltage electric fencing 4 feet wide, with water 1 foot below the fence! Problem solved.?

Every country would have opened fire, including Mexico if masses of people stormed their border like this, but we're wrong for wanting ours protected. Make it make sense ??‍♂️

why would any Canadians want to go to the rapists country? as an Australian i sitting back laughing at the joke that is a country run by a felon failed businessman and his pet Chihuahua musk

Looks like an invasion to me. Normally you would use military force when somebody tries to invade your country I don't know why this is any different

I’m so sorry. I just can’t take some of you white people serious with your comments. Some of them are sooo SHOCKED America is being overran as if their ancestors got this land peacefully. You people are the greatest threat to this planet, which is why all these European countries are crumbling as we speak. Would you like a piece of “Humble Pie” SUGA??????

Unfortunately, have to agree with the fact that some Indians have exploited the visa process and made it a mess for the remaining well intentioned legal residents. Lack of proper manners, over staying, misusing the privilege, list goes on. Please understand: we need to follow rules. We are a law abiding country. Not everything is perfect, neither in India or anywhere. That does not give you the right to break rules blatantly. We don't want illegal immigrants, why would some other country want that. Read, learn and improve. Good luck.

The rich Venezuelans left 5 years ago. Some stayed in other countries but have come in over the past 2 years. There was an immense gap between the haves and have nots. Then a populist uprising resulted in a president who promised the rich would be forced to share their wealth. But the rich fled. Those who couldn't afford to lead have faced terrible financial collapse. But they believe everyone in the USA is very rich, so they want to come here.

Who would want to live in the United States anyway. \nThey can’t even manage their own Finances and have to rely on using coercion in the form of Global Tariffs to pay off the debt which they have accumulated not other countries.

FIX YOUR OWN COUNTRY!! HAD these people spent as much effort on their own country they would not be invading ours.

don’t judge too much. I’m not saying this is good for anyone that is living in ????. we already have a very bad housing crisis etc happening . but i definitely understand why they come.i have great empathy for them .. i feel horrible for them. these people aren’t lining up for black Friday deals or Taylor Swift tickets. these human beings are living in poverty, in danger in their own home countries. They want better for their children!! i’d actually question why they didn’t try for better (not actually, i have no right to judge them ..the lack of $ and danger would make most adults question if it’s the right thing to do). \nwe really need to remember...we aren’t special as human beings. we don’t deserve to live here more then they do. Our families just happen to cross the ocean(we weren’t even from the same land, like most of them, they want to cross a boarder that WE created) in the right decade, right century!! \nwe all came here and took from others. when we bought our land, built our homes, etc if you think back really it didn’t belong to them to sell it to us. It was stollen lands from the Native Americans. And we did such horrible things to natives for centuries!! we TOOK TOOK TOOK while nothing but destruction was given to them in return They are the REAL AMERICANS!!! \nAnd we killed them, we destroyed their communities, separated families, brought and spread diseases that killed thousands, kicked them off of their lands to go to areas we knew they couldn’t thrive, then we took their rights to hold & spend their own money, then stole that money that was to help them set up communities crops food and left them for dead !! we stole their babies from their mothers and fathers and we did this as recently as 50 years ago. \nso remember the day the first white man stepped on North American land was the last day we could say this was the land of the free !! \n\nwe have taken taken and taken from the ? fkd the world over.\nRemember..Americans are the reason south America has the dangerous gangs, cartels poverty,corruption,deaths we buy 40% of all drugs made there just one country buys 40%!! but why change things...when our leaders are benefiting hugely from the chaos. who cares about Mexican, South America families Just get them off our doorsteps ..right. ?\njust don’t think we aren’t Next !! ????

A country has immigration laws. Some abide by them, others enter the country without caring. It would be deportation if the first group were removed from the country. Removing the latter from the country is simply the implementation of applicable law, is as such a duty of the state, and has absolutely nothing to do with deportation. It should be a crime to describe the enforcement of law and order as deportation.

They ruin their country \nthen try to destroy ours \nScumbags \nIf they were good people they would come to America the right way

It just goes to show they shouldn’t be here illegally. Why would we want criminals here when we already are dealing with our own issues in the US. Why the violence towards the US officers on the border if they’re fleeing their country why behave like this they just wanted the free handouts at Americans expense. I don’t know how the government thought this was OK to have all the people come over here illegally and pay for everything when there are homeless veterans and children that are US citizens. Take care of home first.

Biden and Harris caused this. It will get nasty protect our borders. These individuals just stepped off buses or aircraft. These individuals want free lodging free breakfast free lunch and free dinner. Half of the world's population would just walk into our country if we would allow them just to walk across our borders. This must be stopped immediately. Uncle Sam don't have any more free handouts .

Not a fan of trump but this has to happen it’s so rampant. Canada will fall victim next, in fact we are in the midst of it with student visas that expire and asylum is then requested, but we are too scared to do anything and would rather see our country slowly die for fear of speaking up.

Everything was fine, but if all the problems between India and China had been resolved, then the whole world would have understood what these two countries are, and now I see those who cannot eat, those who have no power to do anything, even turn a blind eye to the burden, what can I say?

Lucky for them the USA is more tolerant try this in another country you would be shot

Oh that's right. No country would want you! ?

I always keep upto date with FP news but this was so biased and failed to address the issue fully and accurately. Firstly, the economy of India or the foreign policies of India has little to do with the power of the Indian passport. According to that logic US, China and Russia should be the top 3 in the passport ranking - but it is not. @3:35 The logic is visible and the west does not need to explain it. It is the quality of the people visiting the western countries. There is a significant number of Indian citizens who would migrate without the intention to return. This fact unfortunately affects everyone holding an Indian passport. FP also needs to see that middle class in India is not at a middle class standard worldwide. I presume those countries which has slightly stronger passport than India has populations which are a tiny fraction of those wanting to travel with an Indian passport.

I am surprised that someone like Palki is asking this question. The West won't answer that? It's because of our behaviour, our fake documents and the scams that we pull. Why does the Indian government not address the fact that India has been running the world's biggest immigration scam? Punjab, Gujarat (emphasis on the rat), Haryana, Delhi, etc - the biggest scam running ever. 95% of them do not know how to behave in public and will gather enmass, no doubt a posse of fellow fraudulent immigrants with their fake scores and IELTS documents all paid for and forged by their fraud agencies, and then they make a mess in the foreign country that they go to. Start a F*cking chat counter and lay those stupid cots all over the parking area and then bring their entire family, who can't speak English or the language of that land and then roam around. Possibly even peeing and shitting on the street! Like they do back in India. They basic courtesy that the West take for granted, these country baboons cannot try to emulate, but they will act out the dumb dancing & acting tough of their fool actors in their favourite nonsensical Bollywood movie. The music, especially Punjabi music (those annoying repetitive tinga tinga tinga torture that they pass for music), their dumb chole batture and all sort of BS. These morons possibly want Hindi & Punjabi to be adopted as the new national languages of the West. Being Indian myself I would reject everyone. Or do interviews that check for so many things and then only accept them. We are now universally hated! Congratulations!!

Never lived there but I drive through alot. California used to be alot nicer but even in its prime its a waistland 3rd world country compared to canada. Texas was horrible. Everyone is rude and stupid. I understand the lack of education but even the people in charge are very simple minded and it's very rare to meet a beautiful woman. Everyone is plastic or too skinny and gross to look at. It's nice to live next door and drive through on my way to the pow wows. I would never move there. Unless canada makes more then 2 genders! Then I will fight a war against canada amd move to usa where we can arrest perverts for going into girls rooms.

Seeing a doctor in the emergency depends on how urgent your situation is. In 2023, I broke my left humerus--the bone in the upper arm. My sister took me to Sacré-Coeur Hospital, which is a teaching hospital. At triage the nurses thought my shoulder was dislocated so they sent me for X-rays even before registration, and at the most, I waited about 20 minutes in the waiting room before I was sent to an examination room. When the emergency specialist came in, I told him about pain between my shoulder blades and a feeling of oppression in my chest. So in addition to dealing with my broken arm, he prescribed blood tests that revealed I had had a small heart attack, and he kept me ovrnight. The next day an angiogram was performed and the cardiologist installed two stents in my heart artery, and I spent two days and two nights in the cardiology unit. I don't dare to imagine how much that would have cost me in your country, but also, many people go to the emergency for things like the flu because they don't have a regular doctor to go to, and of course, for stuff like that you are going to wait a long time. Unless there aren't many patients ahead of you.

Oh and if after that kind of behavior, we would decide to welcome you into our country. Go home and help your own country change. The USA has spoken….we do not want you here

Why would we want people like this in our country! \nThey very clearly do not respect our country! So why in Gods name would we let these people in?

You thi k if we did this in their country that we would not get shot?

No other country would allow this! They wouldn't try this in any other country!!!!

Yeah, and us canadians would like the same respect, but we don't get that, but you guys do\n. If we did that in your country, I don't think you guys would be really happy

As an NRI for a decade in Germany, I can assure you that not a single person in the developed western world looks at India with a nicer opinion. They think of it as a necessary baggage. They will only allow Visa on Arrival/E-Visa for people whom they respect and would like to be in the country. While I do not want to get into how some Indians behave when they are on their EU trip, Indians in India do not behave well too. This involves hygiene, roads, infrastructure, intelligence, corruption, etc. Indians tend to look at the Indian flag with tears in their eyes while listening to A.R. Rahman’s “Vande Mataram” with Bharat Bala’s video. But the reality in the western world is this: India is a loud, messy, unhygienic, poorly organized country filled with corruption and crime everywhere. Now, why would a well-developed country open their doors to potentially unruly 1.4 billion people? The reason for visa rejection is that a lot of them simply apply for a tourist visa and never leave. If someone really needs to travel, they will have the money and the motivation to apply multiple times. Hence, the first check with multiple layers of bureaucracy.

For myself America is the last country in the world that I would want to live in
