» » » COLOMBIA : PEACE AGREEMENT UNDER THREAT FROM THE RIGHT



COLOMBIA'S PRESIDENTIAL election could determine the fate of the historic peace deal ending their 53-year civil war. While most in the country want to honour the agreement, Colombia’s right wing has been a fervent opponent.

In Bogotá, Abby Martin interviews Congressman Edward Rodriguez, a leading member of the far-right Democratic Centre Party founded by former President Uribe. She challenges him on his party’s ties to death squads, drug cartels and potential to reignite the war.

Abby also visits the government office dedicated to compensating the civilian victims and speaks with Director Ana Maria Almario about their monumental task.
