Colombian lawyer, Humberto de la Calle believes that the agreement signed between the government and the FARC-EP to ensure the end of the military conflict and hostilities between the two sides, after half a century of war is extraordinary. "This was an important pact," he stated during an interview after talks with the rebel group. According to De la Calle, 180 days after the signing of the final peace agreement, there will be no more weapons in the hands of the FARC-EP and its members will begin returning to civilian life.
