So it appears Columbia will take back illegal immigrants on civilian planes as usual. The issue, to a degree, was the chained-up Columbians on a military transport.
I say we use any plane we want to deport humans from our country, however I do understand there are logistic variances with military aircraft over civilian flights. However if we choose to use our military for immigration purposes, that's up to us.
Sending his own planes is a PR move for Petro.
