Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is accused of meeting with Farc leaders to arrange the delivery of explosives in exchange for payment of a drug trafficking debt.
Colombian news outlets report that Nicolás Maduro's government allegedly met with former FARC leaders, including Timochenko, Iván Márquez, and Jesús Santrich. These meetings purportedly concerned the delivery of explosives to the FARC to settle a drug trafficking debt. The accusations suggest a continued nexus between the Venezuelan regime and Colombian armed groups.
These revelations surface as the United States pursues charges against Maduro and his associates for alleged narco-terrorism. The alleged meetings, if proven, would further implicate Venezuela in supporting illicit activities and complicate regional stability, particularly concerning the ongoing peace process in Colombia.
