BOGOTA — After an unreleased decision to recognize the Palestinian state was leaked on Wednesday, Colombia’s new government said it would review former President Juan Manuel Santos’ recognition of Palestine. President Ivan Duque took office on Tuesday and was informed a few days ago of Santos’ decision, which was detailed in an Aug. 3 letter to the Palestinian representative in Colombia, the foreign ministry said.
