This paper identifies and analyzes the place and significance of the Group of Three (G-3) in Colombia's foreign policy. In this sense, the challenges and opportunities arising from the country's growing commitment to Venezuela and Mexico are raised. Based on an evaluation of the international system, Colombian external behavior and the role of Latin America in the global projection, the preponderance acquired by the G-3 is located and explained. Finally, a conclusion is presented about the scope and limits of the Colombian policy towards this group, and about the urgent need to design and execute a more ambitious, prudent and coherent strategy in this regard.
