Abstract:
In the recent year 2025, a media and diplomatic confrontation is taking place between Colombia and Peru over the sovereignty and legitimacy of the territory of Santa Rosa, located on the triple border of the Amazon River. This dispute has generated various reactions both in terms of bilateral relations between the leaders of the countries and in terms of the media impact that has shaped the different communiqués and how these have influenced the perception and opinion of the public.This descriptive, analytical, and entirely documentary study seeks to evaluate the official communication and diplomatic positions adopted by each country to determine their impact on public perception and the handling of the territorial conflict.From a qualitative approach, various sources such as documents, articles, news reports, and official communiqués are examined in order to identify narratives and interpretive frameworks on sovereignty, borders, and territorial identity.Taking into account all the research carried out, a historical overview is presented that allows us to identify the origin of Santa Rosa Island and its geographical location, which have been central issues in the dispute over the territory of Santa Rosa.
