Felix Schelling

When we first invested in Colombia, we were buying a lot of coal from Colombia. We were dealing with them daily. I knew their guys at the port, I knew their guys at the mine, I had a feel of the country.

Ivan Glasenberg

I didn't go looking to Colombia for a dream - if I tell you that, I'm lying. I went to Colombia because I needed the work!

During the 1990's, Colombia was the leading recipient of US military aid and training in the hemisphere. Approximately half of all US aid in the hemisphere went to Colombia. Colombia was also far and away the leading human rights violator in the hemisphere.

Noam Chomsky

Kali Uchis

Russell Brand

I'm from Colombia, and we've been through a lot of hard situations.
