Some much-needed good news:
Colombia has been fighting the longest-running civil war in the world, and it may finally come to an end very soon...
1. The Colombian government has reached a bilateral cease-fire agreement with the country’s largest insurgent group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).
The agreement effectively marks the end of hostilities between two parties at war since 1964. The government and the Marxist guerrillas of FARC have been in talks since 2012 and have reached agreements on each of the five negotiation pillars.
