State Department Rubber Stamps Colombia Military Aid Certification

## Summary

The U.S. Secretary of State officially confirms that Colombia is making steady progress in holding military leaders accountable for human rights abuses and protecting vulnerable communities. This certification allows continued U.S. military funding to Colombia under the 2024 and 2025 appropriations laws. While the U.S. sees improvements, it still questions if the current rules fully capture Colombia’s human rights efforts.
