Colombia for example. He puts 25% on them. They sell coffee and flowers as an example. So do a lot of other countries. Nobody is going to pay more for Colombian product over another countries. So, Colombia has to eat 25% to compete. That's why they caved so fast.

Coffee and flowers are definitely a good chunk of their exports to America. Coffee exports 11.5% and flowers are 10.5% However, their crude petroleum is even more. They export 38.8% to America. That is what is really going to hurt them.
