An exceptional discussion with Gonzalo Restrepo López, Member of Colombia Government’s Negotiating Team for the Peace Process.

Introduced by Enrico Letta, Dean of PSIA.

Our guest, Mr Gonzalo Restrepo López, is part of the negotiating team that, last August 24, announced a final agreement between the Colombian government and the FARC. This historical event, reached after 5 years of negotiations, ends a conflict of 52 year long, one of the longest in South America, counting 220,000 victims and 7 millions displaced. The official signing ceremony will take place in Cartagena, on September 26, in the presence of several world leaders and representatives of the guarantor countries.
