Solidaridad Internacionalista con el pueblo colombiano y repudio a la violencia sistemática en su contra

Friends of the Earth International denounces a surge of systematic violence in Colombia, reporting over 280 deaths in 73 massacres by November 2020. The statement highlights the targeting of peasant, indigenous, and Afro-descendant communities, the failure of the Iván Duque government to protect leaders, and the lack of progress in implementing the 2016 peace agreements with FARC-EP. It calls for international investigation and the cessation of violence by state forces and paramilitaries.

• By November 2020, reports indicated the murder of more than 280 people across 73 massacres in Colombia, with violence increasing during the Covid-19 pandemic under the government of Iván Duque.
• Violence is systematically directed at grassroots organizations and communities, specifically targeting peasants, indigenous people, Afro-descendants, women, youth, and children.
• The Jornada Continental por la Democracia y Contra el Neoliberalismo reported that by April 29, 95 leaders and over a hundred demobilized members of the FARC-EP had been murdered, with no effective response or security strategy from the Colombian government.
• Massacres have recurred in territories historically affected by armed conflict, characterized by illegal crops, paramilitary control, and illegal extractive activities, often in areas with minimal state presence.
• The Colombian government has shown almost no will to advance the implementation of the 2016 peace agreements signed with the FARC-EP, threatening the goal of peace and social justice.
