Bogota (AFP) – Leftist Venezuela has agreed to be a guarantor of future peace
talks between Colombia and its last guerrilla group, both countries said Tuesday
night.

This is the latest move toward strong new relations that had been severed until
Gustavo Petro took power this month as the first leftist leader ever in
Colombia.

Colombia has asked the Venezuelan government of President Nicolas Maduro to be
guarantor of talks with the National Liberation Army, or ELN, the last active
rebel group in a country torn by decades of conflict.

In a speech, Maduro said, "Of course we agree!"

It thus joins Chile and Cuba as guarantors of talks that the Bogota government
hopes to hold with the ELN.

Colombia and its largest rebel group, the FARC, signed an historic peace accord
in 2016 after decades of war.

Venezuela took part in that peace process, with Maduro involved at first as
foreign minister in the government of the late socialist icon Hugo Chavez, then
after 2013 as his successor.

"Peace in Colombia is peace in South America," Maduro said Tuesday.

Petro wants to resume talks with the ELN that his conservative predecessor Ivan
Duque had started. They broke off after a rebel attack in 2019 that left 22
people dead.

Representatives of Petro's government and the ELN have already met in Havana.

Petro has said there would soon be a meeting with the ELN in Venezuela, which
Colombian military intelligence has said is hosting senior ELN leaders.

After Petro took power in August, Colombia and Venezuela restored diplomatic
relations after three years of rupture triggered by Colombia's recognizing
opposition leader Juan Guaido as interim president of Venezuela.
