In news from Latin America, approximately a thousand indigenous Colombians have begun marching toward Bogota to protest the government’s decision to abandon talks with the FARC, the leftist guerrilla movement.
Indigenous leader Roberto Palacio: “Our work is humanitarian, and we say 'yes' to the humanitarian agreement, and we believe that it is a step the Colombian government has to take. If they don’t want to, the Colombian people have to pressure them, because we cannot keep aggravating the process.”
