Colombian Violence
We all want peace; especially in a country like Colombia, the peace agreement becomes one of the most important events in our history. How are we going to achieve it? That’s a different story
Generally speaking, Colombia has been in conflict for more than 50 years; years of blood shell, of decadence, of extreme violence. And the question is who is to blame for that violence? Well, the answer is not easy as many factors are attributed to the problem, namely corruption, drugs and negligence. During these years presidents, ministers and all kinds of authorities have done nothing other than blaming the others for the problem, yet the last twenty years have been the worst in Colombian history.
Unfortunately, it was the murder of a political figure
which triggered the worst tranquility period in our era. That person was Luis Carlos Galan. The party he represented was united and supposedly in agreement of a conversation with the guerrillas, founded by the FARC group at that time and fuel by the drugs cartels of Medellin and Cali. Every political leader since then have been worst and worst and nothing has been done to change the situation.
To conclude, many people have lost their hope on a peace agreement. On the one hand we need it, but on the other hand we do nothing to conquer the so called Colombian peace.
