Colombia Recognises Israeli Sovereignty Over Disputed Golan Heights
Colombia's new government under President Abelardo de la Espriella has recognised Israeli sovereignty over the disputed Golan Heights, joining the United States as the only countries to do so. The decision marks a shift from the longstanding international consensus that the territory remains Syrian. Colombia cited regional instability and Israel's security concerns, including recent attacks, as reasons for the recognition. The move has been welcomed by Israeli officials but contrasts with United Nations views that consider the Golan Heights occupied Syrian land.
