Under the leadership of USA IMF has invested enormous amounts of money in order to suppress Colombia and her natural recourses to imperialism. No results do far. The invested funds go mostly to organized criminalism and to the corrupted fascist government. At the same time USA tries to suppress Colombia politically by training and arming militant terrorist groups. They fight against ordinary people and groups.
Political murders are a form of normal daily life in Colombia.
Columbian government has tried to combine the regular army and the death patrols. No success so far. On top of this recession, Colombian President is trying to impose an International Monetary Fund program of austerity and privatizations. This policy has provoked a series of massive strikes by powerful Colombian union and peasant organizations. In Colombia the economic instability is accompanied by a militant mass movement of workers and peasants.
