target="_blank">Santrich, or Seuxis Pausias Hernandez
Solarte</a>, wrote a new statement on behalf of the
dissidents of the demobilized insurgent group FARC-EP,
now converted into a Common Revolutionary Alternative
Force (FARC) political party, whose video was
exclusively accessed by the Russian news agency Sputnik.</p>
<p>In the statement disclosed on Sputnik’s website, he
says that the Colombian president “assures
without flinching that what he did not sign, does not
oblige him, ignoring that the agreement was signed with
the State”.</p>
<p>"The State that does not respect its commitments does
not deserve the respect of the International Community,
nor of its own people," said the dissident leader.</p>
<p>He stressed that the objective of the FARC sector that
was rearmed "is not the soldier or the police officer,
the officer or the non-commissioned officer respectful
of popular interests, but the oligarchy," which he
described as "corrupt, mafia and violent."</p>
<p>He said that they will "immediately" seek to coordinate
efforts with the insurgent National Liberation Army
(ELN) "and with those comrades who have not folded the
flags that fly for the homeland."</p>
<p>He said his intention is to install a transitional
government product of "a great coalition of forces,
social justice and democracy that calls for a new peace
dialogue."</p>
<p>In November 2016, the FARC signed a peace agreement
with the Government of then-President Juan Manuel
Santos, to end an internal armed conflict of more than
50 years, however, during this time more than 150
ex-combatants and around 500 Colombian social leaders
were killed.</p>
