Bogotá, Jun 6 (EFE).- Colombia’s National Strike Committee (CNP), made up mainly of unions, has decided to “unilaterally suspend” talks over the country’s social crisis, the government said Sunday.
“Today, the committee has decided to unilaterally suspend the dialog at the dialog table. We, the government, are ready,” said government spokesman and presidential adviser for stabilization and consolidation, Emilio Archila.
The talks between the government and the committee have been ongoing without progress, with the former calling for road blockades to be lifted and the latter accusing the government of not wanting to sign guarantees to peaceful protest, limiting the use of force by the police.
