Colombia’s FARC Rebels Hopeful for Peace Deal

{{Colombian government and the FARC rebel group have been holding talks for the last six months, but government negotiators say little progress has been made.}}

The FARC rebels have rejected the idea of legal prosecution for their actions in the country’s 60-year war, in which thousands of people have been killed and millions displaced.

The rebels say the peace talks will take time, and the government’s push for a quick deal is aimed at upcoming elections.
