After a four-day extension of the 37th round of talks between the Colombian government and the FARC that had been launched on May 21, the parties ended their cycle yesterday. In a joint communiqué, they reported new advances at the table regarding the topic of “victims”–namely, an agreement to establish a Commission for the Clarification of Truth, Harmony and Non-Repetition that would be activated once the final peace agreement is signed. More to come, but in the meantime, here’s the link to the full report in Spanish: 2015_0604 Comunicado conjunto Gobierno Nacional y FARC-EP No.53. You can read the report in English here.
Ginny, how are you?
I just wanted to draw your attention to the fact that the agreement exists also in English http://farc-epeace.org/index.php/communiques/communiques-peace-delegation/item/761-joint-report-on-commission-for-clarification-of-truth,-coexistence-and-non-repetition.html.
Best wishes,
Alexandra Nariño.
