Background:
Colombia was one of the three countries that emerged from the
collapse of Gran Colombia in 1830 (the others being Ecuador
and Venezuela). A 40-year insurgent campaign to overthrow the
Colombian Government escalated during the 1990s, undergirded
in part by funds from the drug trade. Although the violence is
deadly and large swaths of the countryside are under guerrilla
influence, the movement lacks the military strength or popular
support necessary to overthrow the government. While Bogota
continues to try to negotiate a settlement, neighboring
countries worry about the violence spilling over their
borders. |
