FARC

Six people were killed on Dec. 17 evening in the remote Colombian town of Mapiripán in what the army suspects was related to drug trafficking.

The FARC were once principal actors in half a decade of war against the Colombian state.

Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos acknowledged Wednesday that his government may miss a fast-approaching deadline to sign a peace deal with rebels and end the main part of the country’s decades-long conflict.

The U.N. Security Council on Monday unanimously approved a resolution to establish a political mission to monitor and verify a future ceasefire in Colombia that would end Latin America’s longest-running guerrilla conflict.

Colombia has been the site of one of the world’s longest internal armed conflicts.

Behind the illicit flow of drugs into the United States and the violence waged in Latin America by criminal cartels, the Chinese regime is hard at work.

Spanish police say they have arrested a suspected former combatant in the Colombian rebel force FARC who they say carried out more than 500 forced abortions on female guerrillas.

The results of recent elections in Latin America raise key questions for the United States and the region at large.

It has now been a little more than three years of lies, secret deals, and broken promises since the so-called “peace process” between the Colombian gov’t and the FARC started in Havana.

When Secretary John Kerry goes to Havana this Friday and meets Cuban officials he should question their continuous support to terrorist groups.
