BOGOTA - There is “no doubt” it would be easier to combat Colombia’s rebel groups if Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro were no longer in power, Colombia’s foreign minister said, amid accusations that Caracas is providing the groups with shelter.
Ex-FARC commanders Ivan Marquez and Jesus Santrich appeared surrounded by armed fighters in a YouTube video, saying a 2016 peace accord had been betrayed. “This regime protects them: it has opened its doors to them. This regime facilitates their actions from its territory,” said Trujillo. Venezuela’s foreign ministry on Friday blamed the dissident rearmament on Duque’s failure to follow through on the peace accords.
