Havana, November 19 (PL-RHC)-- The FARC-EP insurgents said on Wednesday that President Juan Manuel Santos's unilateralism in the Colombian peace dialogues endangers the stability of what has been achieved until now.

With the peace process in the Cuban capital since 2012 as a background, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia-People's Army (FARC-EP) expressed its support to the dialogue as an instrument of peace, as well as its rejection to unilateralism, which affects this process aimed to end the conflict in Colombia.

The word, dialogue, agreements, are three terms that lead to a long lasting peace, said the head of the peace delegation, Ivan Marquez, when referred to the achievements of three years of talks in Havana.

But monologue, unilateralism, uncompromising stubbornness, exclusionary political selfishness, are concepts and methods that threaten the stability of what has been built with great effort, risk and with lurking enemies, said the insurgent leader.

In that sense, the guerrillas affirmed rejection of unilateral initiatives promoted by the Executive as the 'alleged formulas for ending the conflict by one of the sides', including the plebiscite raised in the Colombian Congress to endorse the future peace agreement.

In the current round of peace talks, both sides, according to the FARC-EP, will continue reviewing and trying to close all aspects regarding the victims, including the issue of transitional justice, and will try to advance in the development of aspects for ending the conflict.
