En veremos diálogos con el Clan del Golfo
Por Rafael Pardo Rueda - [email protected]
TL;DR
- The US has designated the Clan del Golfo as a terrorist group, creating difficulties for ongoing peace negotiations.
- The Clan del Golfo has an estimated 9,000 armed members and operates in 28 countries.
- Previous agreements included establishing three concentration zones in Córdoba and Chocó, suspending arrest warrants and extraditions, and a supervision protocol with the MAP-OEA.
- A legal framework for the group's submission is still lacking and faces challenges in Congress.
- US sanctions could target both Clan del Golfo leaders and Colombian government negotiators.
- The location of negotiations in Doha, Qatar, may need to be moved.
- Focusing negotiations on mid-level commanders and potential replacements is suggested to prevent the cycle of conflict.
