OP, the title youve given is misleading and different from the article. He does not say he will refuse these flights, only that he will refuse flights where peolple are treated inhumanely.

I cannot force migrants to remain in a country that does not want them. But if that country returns them, it must be with dignity and respect – for both them and our nation. In civilian planes, and without treating them like criminals, we will welcome our compatriots.

I'm sure Trump's flights will have reclining seats and in-flight service. /s

I think you're splitting a hair that doesn't exist.

Edit: I'm saying I don't think any of the flights will be humane.

“That is why I ordered the return of US military planes carrying Colombian migrants,” Petro wrote, sharing a video of Brazilian deportees who had been flown out of the US on Friday, shackled at the wrists and ankles.

He seems to imply the Colombian migrants were treated similarly, worth taking issue over IMO.

Yes, it's an issue. I'm saying none of the flights will be humane. I get the feeling people are taking the wrong point away from my original comment.
