COLOMBIA: New home for ELN dialogue found
Less than a month after being notified by Ecuador that it would no longer host the formal peace dialogue with the Ejército de Liberación Nacional (ELN) [WR-18-16], the Colombian government led by President Juan Manuel Santos has found a new country willing to assume this role. Cuba has offered to take over hosting duties and the respective peace negotiating teams are now in Havana ready to resume the talks. Havana provided the venue for the successful peace negotiations with the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (Farc). The government will be hoping that the city will once again provide the right environment to wrap up another deal with a guerrilla group and consolidate Colombia’s peace process.
