Colombia's President Juan Manual Santos called it a "historic day" after the USA's congress finally passed free trade agreements with Colombia, Panama and South Korea.
"The free trade agreement ends the uncertainty that has been discouraging long-term investment and it now guarantees to all investors stability in the rules of the game," he said.
However, a USA official says the FTA will not take full effect until Q2 of 2013.
