"Those who assaulted other people, those who kidnapped, extorted and killed are the ones who own peace. We, the masters of conflict." In my lifetime, I've carried out a task, which is unlike you, I have moral authority to discuss peace and I will abide by the agreements and I will oblige the FARC along with your allies and friends respect the peace agreement because they are not fulfilling the peace accord."

Relations with Venezuela
