Colombia, officially the Republic of Colombia, is a country in South America.
U.S. involvement
Colombia was involved in Bill Clinton's Plan Colombia (2000–2006) and George W. Bush's Andean Regional Initiative (2008–2010). In 2010, it received $185 million of U.S. military training and aid. Peasants who depend on the coca plant for their livelihood have been targeted by the United States with herbicides such as glyphosate and rely on leftist groups such as FARC for protection.[1]
