VOICED : Colombia suspenderá extradiciones a EEUU de narcos que se rindan

Colombian President Gustavo Petro announced a proposal for narcotraffickers to surrender and cease their activities, offering non-extradition to those who comply. This announcement was made during a press conference with Spanish President Pedro Sánchez. Petro, who took office on August 7, plans to discuss with Washington to ensure this commitment. He stated that narcotraffickers who do not negotiate with the state will be extradited, and those who negotiate but reoffend will face extradition without negotiation in the U.S. Petro has offered legal benefits to the Clan del Golfo, a major drug trafficking group, without specifying if these include alternative sentences like those agreed with FARC guerrillas in 2016. He emphasized the need for action to achieve peace. Additionally, Petro is resuming peace talks with the ELN, Colombia's last recognized guerrilla group, and has criticized the failure of the drug war, proposing a new approach focused on reducing consumption in developed countries.
