We are talking about ELN, a totally different group. There are some Farc dissidence but they ended up joining common gangs or the other group. They number like 500 people in total, which is nothing compared to hundreds of thousands of our military. It's fishy as fuck that they don't wipe them out asap though desu
1. Your cunt
there's not much to see, so no
>They number like 500 people in total,
So few? What's their realistic objective?
It;s a miracle you guys aren't Syria/Afghanistan tier with all the cartels and paramilitary groups you have/had.
the dissidents are like 500 approx. ELN has 2000 men approximately
>What's their realistic objective?
ELN: Political representation but they are terrorists who have killed people in the past and virtually no one agrees to see them in congress or the senate. The vast majority of the population wants to see them in jail for life. People regard Santos (the Ex-president) as a traitor for giving Farc amnesty and seats in congress/senate, however the Farc political party has almost no support from the populace. If I'm not mistaken it is lower than 1%
Dissidents: they have not an objective besides enriching themselves. They were given the opportunity to reinsert into civilian life, but they saw much more potential in keeping dealing with drugs and other illegal activities. The government is not planning to negotiate with them, they can only get caught or killed if they run into the authorities
this is a highly urbanized country (80+%) like basically all countries in the Americas and most of the conflict happens far from populated centers. People living in those areas are of course affected but life in cities are "normal" like in any other countries, except for last week where this Eln group exploded a car bomb at a police compound, but we hadn't had a car bomb attack since 2003.
Most violence here is actually related to territorial control for drugs trafficking rather than illegal militias killing each other for a political ideology
