Colombia’s Senate president said Thursday that the United States should support a sequel to military aid program Plan Colombia to financially support the South American country’s efforts to make peace between leftist rebels and the state.
Senator Juan Fernando Cristo (Liberal Party) said so in a debate organized by the Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA), a think tank focused on US foreign policy in Latin America.

The US government has spent more than 8 billion dollars in military aid for Colombia since the two countries agreed to the joint military strategy in 1999.
