Washington, D.C.<\/span>, July 26th, 2019.<\/strong>\u2014As Colombians march for peace in their country today, we echo their call for a permanent end to the war that claimed 260,000 lives and forced 8 million people, the majority from Afro-descendant and indigenous communities, and mostly women and children, to flee their homes. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We join their call for the Colombian government to protect the social leaders building peace in their communities. Hundreds have been killed since the peace accords were signed in 2016, while many more live under the constant pressure of daily threats and attacks. This tragedy must end.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We vigorously support their demand that the Colombian government fully and faithfully implement the peace accords signed between the government and the FARC guerrillas\u2014or this once-in-a-lifetime chance for peace will be lost.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, we call on the United States and the international community at large to back the effective implementation of the peace accords wholeheartedly.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We stand in solidarity with the millions of Colombians who are struggling to build a just, complete, and lasting peace and who tomorrow say <\/span>#26deJulioElGrito<\/span>. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
