Havana, July 14 (RHC) -– The peace talks by representatives of Colombia’s Revolutionary Armed Forces-People’s Army (FARC-EP)and the government will resume Tuesday focusing on the issue of the victims of the over 50-year armed conflict in the South American nation.
A joint communiqué by the parties say they will now advance the point on the victims included in the peace talks that began November 19, 2012.
The document explains that the parties advanced discussions on the way that the representatives of the victims will participate at the table of negotiations, which aims at ending the armed conflict in Colombia.
