How much money did the Colombian government receive in reparations from the US Government?
What was the money in reparations for?

Answer 1

The act granted each surviving internee US$20,000 in compensation, equivalent to $38,000 in 2019, with payments beginning in 1990. Reparations were to be directly paid to the four victor powers (France, Britain, USA and the Soviet Union); for the countries in the Soviet sphere of influence, the Soviet Union would determine its distribution.
