  • 9 years ago
The Colombian government and FARC guerrillas have agreed to extend their land mine clearing campaign, which was launched at the Havana peace talks in May. The efforts have been centered around the village of El Orejon in the state of Antioquia and will now be extended to other areas. However, concerns have been raised over the presence of paramilitary forces that have hindered the campaign. teleSUR
