Background

See main article: Colombia–Peru relations. Both countries established relations on June 6, 1822.[2] Relations were initially amicable, although a territorial dispute soon led to conflict between both states. The first such conflict was the Gran Colombia–Peru War, being followed by skirmishes that would last almost a century after, culminating in the 20th century Battle of La Pedrera and the Colombia–Peru War, ultimately being resolved by the Salomón–Lozano Treaty and the 1934 Rio Protocol.

Relations remained amicable, with both countries cooperating in several international organizations,[3] until 2023, when Colombian president Gustavo Petro's comments in support of the ongoing protests in favour of deposed president Pedro Castillo and against president Dina Boluarte caused controversy in Peru, with relations being downgraded at a ministerial level.[4] [5]
