But there was no room to quibble when Juan Manuel Santos, the president, called the killing of the guerrillas' leader on November 4th "the most resounding blow against the organisation in its entire history." Following two air strikes on his camp in the south-western province of Cauca, Guillermo Leon Saenz, whose nom de guerre was Alfonso Cano, was trying to escape when a soldier spotted him and shot him dead. Mr Cano, once a middle-class anthropology student, spent 33 years as a guerrilla. He took over the FARC in 2008 after Pedro Antonio Marin (known as Manuel Marulanda or "Sureshot"), their founder, died of a heart attack. He was known as an intractable Marxist who advocated taking power by force. Even as he strengthened the FARC militarily, however, Mr Cano kept the door open to peace talks. It is unclear whether Mr Cano's successor will be able to offer a credible peace deal. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
