Juan Carlos Pinzon

The government of Colombia informed is very hard to prove and verify the ceasefire declaration of two months made by FARC. The minister of Defence, Juan Carlos Pinzon, pointed out “I wish they uphold it”, since he remains incredulous about the decision and comply on behalf the insurgents of the group.

The minister added that in other occasions the Colombian guerrilla has employed criminal gangs to commit felonies. “So this, the verification is complicated matter,” stated Pinzon.

However neither the minister nor any police or military authority have informed of recent insurgent actions during the first hours of the unilateral ceasefire.
