A Perfect Peace Is Not Possible; It

I Fight Terrorism As If There Was No Peace Process, And I Negotiate The Peace Process As If There Was No Terrorism.

I Have Had Extremely Good Relations With The United States And With Both Parties (republicans And Democrats), And I Hope To Continue To Have These Good Relations, Which I, Again Repeating, Do Not Consider To Be Mutually Exclusive With Having Good Relations With Venezuela Or Ecuador Or Whichever Country In South America.

I Say This As The President Of The Country Which Has Suffered More Deaths, More Blood And More Sacrifices In This War.

Europe Would Be Well Advised To Pay More Attention To Latin America. The Emerging Economies Are The Engines Of The Global Economy. Colombia Has Done Too Little To Improve Its Reputation In Europe.

We Must Rebuild Colombia, Starting With Ourselves, Our Hearts, Put Resentment Aside, Put Hatred Aside, Put Envy Aside. The Only Thing That Those Attitudes Accomplish Is To Sow Violence And Sow Death And Suffering.
