In the same social network, Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez welcomed the reinstatement of the discussions between the Government of Colombia and the ELN and recalled that the island participates in its capacity as guarantor and ratifies its support to this dialogue process.

This Monday, delegations of the Colombian Government and the ELN restarted negotiations in Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, with the purpose of advancing in a peace process and the full construction of democracy.
