Many people in the interior of the party do not agree with the fact that this number will prevail over the company of agreements, after more than four years of negotiations in La Habana, Cuba.

And that does not allow them to have real options in Colombian politics.
While defending the idea of continuing the FARC scandal, according to London, there are some executives of this guerrilla group such as Luciano Marín Arango, alias “Iván Márquez”, who regrouped with the clientele together with Seuxis Pausias Hernándeán, Darias “Jesus” Velásquez, alias “El paisa”.
