Colombia reaches new peace deal with rebels

Monday, November 14, 2016


The Colombian government and the nation’s main rebel group said on Saturday that they had reached a “new final accord” to end their longstanding conflict, potentially reviving a deal that was rejected last month in a referendum.

The changes to the agreement with the rebel group, the FARC, were announced in Havana and addressed a range of topics that negotiators said had troubled voters.
