What happened â and why it matters
Gustavo Petro, the President of Colombia, just gave one of the most radical speeches at the United Nations in yearsâ calling Gaza a genocide, declaring that âdiplomacy has failedâ, and urging nations to form an international armed force to defend Palestinians. In the days around that speech, Petro joined pro-Palestinian protesters outside UN headquarters, and in a fiery address told U.S. soldiers to âdisobey the orders of Trumpâ and âobey humanity.â
Shortly after, according to reporting by Al Jazeera (by Alastair McCready and news agencies, 27 Sept 2025), the U.S. State Department announced it would revoke Petroâs U.S. visa, citing his âreckless and incendiary actions.â That is not normal. That is an administration using immigration leverage to punish a head of state for speaking moral clarity about genocide â and for urging soldiers not to participate in it.
This is the fight over truth in real time: Will world leaders who name genocide be punished and pushed out of the room? Or will we insist that this is precisely what the UN is for?
Petroâs words, unvarnished
From the UN floor (Sept 23), as summarized by Pablo Meriguet (Sept 25, 2025), Petro said plainly:
âHumanity must stop the genocide in Gaza.â
âDiplomacy has already played its part⌠it has failed to resolve the situation.â
âA powerful army is needed from countries that do not accept genocide⌠Words are no longer enough: it is time for the sword â BolĂvarâs âfreedom or death.ââ
When Petro linked U.S. actions in the Caribbean and Colombia to domination and violence, the U.S. delegation walked out of the General Assembly. He went further: if U.S. boat strikes in the Caribbean killed Colombians, criminal cases should be opened against U.S. officials â âeven the highest-ranking⌠President Trump.â (El Tiempo carried the State Departmentâs response that âour actions speak for themselves.â)
Outside the UN, in a protest speech captured on video and cited by Al Jazeera, Petro declared: âI ask all of the soldiers of the army of the U.S. not to point their guns at humanity. Disobey the orders of Trump. Obey the orders of humanity.â He also previewed a UN resolution to create a âWorld Salvation Armyâ â a multinational protection force whose first task would be the liberation of Palestine.
Separately, the Afghan Voice Agency reported Petro has ordered Colombian embassies and missions to spare no effort in supporting Palestine, opened a volunteer registry (prior military and civilians), and said he is personally ready to participate: âI have previously been in military activity and am ready to participate without fear.â
Why this moment is different
Petro isnât new to this fight: he cut ties with Israel in 2024, backed South Africa at the ICJ, opened a diplomatic mission in Ramallah, and helped spearhead a July 2025 coalition to halt purchases from Israeli arms firms. But this is the first time a sitting head of state has put an international protection force on the UN table â not blue helmets for show, but a real shield for civilians.
And the response wasnât debate â it was punishment. Revoke his visa. Push him out of the country. Thatâs the reflex of power when a leader refuses to launder atrocity in diplomatic language.
Call it clearly: when a government moves to silence a head of state for naming genocide â and for asking soldiers to obey humanity â thatâs not security. Thatâs censorship. Itâs the criminalization of conscience.
The stakes â and what comes next
The UN exists for this. If the General Assembly canât hear and act on a demand to protect a people facing extermination, then what is it for? The point of the UN was never to provide cover for vetoes and delay while children are starved and bombed. The point was to stop it.
Petro drew a line in the sand: either the world brings protection to Gaza, or it admits publicly it will not. The U.S. response tells you everything about where the Trump administration stands. They want Petro gone â not because he lied, but because he told the truth too plainly.
I want you to hear me: this is why we record every vote, track every revocation, and publish every clip. So they cannot pretend this never happened. So they cannot pretend the world did not try to speak.
