VOICED : Santos pide ayuda a Europa para paz

Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos is working to gain European support for a peace process with the FARC guerrillas. He plans to visit six EU countries to propose a trust fund for post-conflict efforts, emphasizing the importance of this opportunity to end a 50-year war. The peace process aims to reduce cocaine production by promoting alternative crops, which could have positive regional effects. Ongoing peace talks in Cuba have made progress, but challenges remain, such as preventing rebels from joining drug cartels. Santos hopes to finalize negotiations by 2015, aligning with regional elections and a potential public referendum.
