TL;DR

Colombia has expelled Argentine diplomats from its embassy following derogatory comments made by Argentine President Javier Milei about Colombian President Gustavo Petro, including calling him a "terrorist" and "communist." This move comes after similar comments in January, and the Colombian foreign ministry cited the deterioration of trust and offense to President Petro's dignity as reasons for the expulsion. Milei also targeted other regional leaders in the interview, including Mexico's Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
