U.S. President Joe Biden praised Colombian President Gustavo Petro on Thursday for his country's treatment of refugees from Venezuela and for his commitment to democracy and human rights.
During a meeting at the White House, Biden said the United States and Colombia could deepen their cooperative relationship and noted both nations had been working to fight climate change, counter narcotics traffic, and address migration.
"As we begin the next century of our partnership, I believe we can do even more" to deepen and develop cooperation, Biden told Petro during Thursday's meeting. Some 2 million Venezuelan migrants are living in Colombia, which has granted them legal status and a 10-year right to remain. Several Colombian presidential administrations have decried a lack of international aid to help their country manage the migrant influx and provide health, education and other services for Venezuelans, many of whom arrive with very little."We're working closely with regional partners to help Colombia meet this challenge," Biden said.
"I believe that humankind in the Americas may well have the greatest potential for democracy and freedom," Petro said through an interpreter.
