Colombian President Reported to End 'Total Peace' Policy, Halt All Peace Talks
According to a report by Anadolu Agency, Colombian President Abelardo De La Espriella has ordered the termination of the 'Total Peace' initiative, directing a return to military operations against armed groups.
Colombian President Abelardo De La Espriella has dismantled the country's 'Total Peace' policy and shut down all ongoing peace negotiations, according to a report by Turkey's Anadolu Agency.
The agency reported that De La Espriella has ordered a return to military offensives against armed groups operating in the country, along with judicial prosecution of members of illegal organizations.
According to the report, the move marks the end of a strategy pursued by his predecessor, which had relied on dialogue with armed factions as a means of achieving peace.
The 'Total Peace' policy had aimed to negotiate simultaneously with multiple armed groups, including guerrilla factions and criminal organizations, as part of an effort to reduce violence across Colombia.
Anadolu Agency's report did not provide further details on the specific armed groups affected by the policy change or the timeline for the resumption of military operations. Additional details on the decision and its implementation were not immediately available.
