Washington Post: Colombian government, rebels announce major breakthrough in peace talks
HAVANA — Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos and the leader of the FARC rebel group were expected to announce a major breakthrough Wednesday in their peace negotiations, which could bring the country to the verge of ending one of the world’s longest-running wars.
The Colombian president arrived Wednesday afternoon in Havana, where formal negotiations between the two sides began in 2012. Also in the city was Timoleon Jimenez, alias “Timochenko,” the elusive commander of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (known by its Spanish acronym as FARC) who had previously surfaced only in videos recorded from his jungle hideouts.
