President Gustavo Petro announced this Saturday, October 18, that Colombia received the Colombian survivor of the drug-laden submarine that the United States bombed in the Caribbean Sea, off the coast of Venezuela.

The president stated that the captured man"will be prosecuted according to the law."

"We welcomed the Colombian detained in the narco-submarine. We are glad he is alive and will be prosecuted according to the law," Petro stated on his X account.

The bombing of the 'narco-submarine' left two survivors.

It's worth remembering that the United States, which has been carrying out a military deployment in Caribbean waters for two months to, according to the White House, counter drug trafficking, bombed a submarine allegedly loaded with drugs this week.

President Donald Trump reported that this is the first of six attacks so far that left no survivors. Two men were saved from death and will be deported to their countries of origin. One is Colombian and the other is Ecuadorian.

"There were four known narco-terrorists on board. Two of them were killed. The two surviving terrorists are being returned to their home countries, Ecuador and Colombia, for detention and prosecution," the US president said.

To date, the United States has carried out six attacks on vessels manned by suspected drug traffickers. The death toll is 27 and two survivors.

"It was my great honor to destroy a massive drug trafficking submarine that was traveling toward the United States along a known drug trafficking transit route," Trump said on his Truth Social account.

The president asserted that "this vessel was loaded primarily with fentanyl and other illegal narcotics."

It's important to note that Trump believes the Cartel of the Suns operates in Venezuela, with its main leader being Nicolás Maduro, the leader of the Chavista regime, for whom he is offering a $50 million bounty.
