Colombia and FARC to Negotiate Demobilization

Negotiations between the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia and the Colombian government have reached a decisive moment. Over the past year, both sides have come to agreements on major points of the agenda toward an eventual peace deal, including land reform, political participation and the subject of the militant group's involvement in producing and selling illegal drugs. However, none of these deals are yet final, and the two sides must now decide on the terms and nature of the group's withdrawal from the field.
