Gjennombrudd i Colombia-forhandlingene

- Gjennombruddet er en milepæl i forhandlingene og viser at det er reell vilje til å finne en fredelig løsning på Latin-Amerikas lengste væpnede konflikt, sier utenriksminister Espen Barth Eide.

The negotiations will begin at a time when President Santos has initiated a new national dialogue, after the agreement between the Government and the FARC was rejected by a narrow majority of voters in a referendum.
Forhandlingene starter på et tidspunkt hvor president Santos har innledet en nasjonal dialog, etter at avtalen mellom regjeringen og Farc ble nedstemt ved folkeavstemning med et knapt flertall.
The ELN, like the larger guerrilla movement FARC, has been part of the 52-year armed conflict in Colombia since its outbreak.
ELN har i likhet med den tallmessig større geriljabevegelsen Farc, vært del av den 52 år lange væpnede interne konflikten i Colombia siden dens begynnelse.
