Colombian Minister of Agriculture, Indalecio Dangond, recently concluded a trip to Israel to seek agricultural solutions for struggling sectors – rice, coffee, and flower growers. However, the timing of this visit has prompted questions, given the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for the Israeli Prime Minister and the ongoing situation in Gaza. The announced agreements focus on agricultural cooperation, but critics question whether seeking assistance from Israel is appropriate under these circumstances. The article, published by *La Silla Vacía*, highlights the tension between the need for practical solutions for Colombian farmers and the ethical considerations surrounding collaboration with Israel. The crisis facing Colombian rice, coffee, and flower farmers necessitates innovative strategies, but Dangond’s choice of Israel as a partner has become a point of contention. The core issue revolves around reconciling the pursuit of agricultural aid with concerns about international law and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
