ICJ ruling on San Andres a ‘serious judgement error’: Santos

Colombia’s president Juan Manuel Santos believes the ICJ court made a “serious error is judgement” in its decision to hand over large chunks of sea around the island of San Andres to Nicaragua.

Following the ruling San Andres Governor Aury Guerrero told press that “it was foreseeable that the islands’ fishermen would be stripped of opportunities.” The governor said that most of the fish the Colombians depend on are now in Nicaraguan waters.
