Colombia Opens Embassy in Jerusalem, Restores Diplomatic and Trade Ties with Israel
Colombia reopened its embassy in Jerusalem on October 14, reversing the previous administration's break with Israel over the Gaza conflict. The move, led by President Abelardo De La Espriella, also restored a free trade agreement with Israel. Israeli and Colombian officials emphasized strengthening diplomatic, security, and trade relations. The embassy opening marks Colombia as the 10th country to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, a status disputed by Palestinians seeking East Jerusalem for a future state.
