Curtis | C001114 | www.curtis.senate.gov | curtis | https://www.curtis.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senators John Curtis, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee (SFRC) Western Hemisphere Subcommittee, and Jim Risch, SFRC Chairman, today released the following statement regarding the ongoing wave of violence in Colombia, which has included an assassination attempt on a presidential candidate, Miguel Uribe, and at least 15 bombings: “The ongoing acts of violence and terrorism in Colombia are reprehensible and should be condemned by all who prize freedom and law and order. President Petro should immediately adopt robust security measures and roll back his dangerous “Total Peace” strategy that has only emboldened terrorists and invited violence. Additionally, Petro should cease his efforts to push through a failed referendum that has already been rejected by the Colombian Senate. We fear that without taking these actions, the Colombian people will continue to suffer under extreme violence and uncertainty.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:34:38Z |
