Colombia government shuts peace talks with Comuneros del Sur, Combos Paisas

The Colombian government has terminated dialogue tables with the Comuneros del Sur and Combos Paisas armed groups, removing its negotiators and the groups' spokespersons. This marks a reversal of the government's 'total peace' policy toward these groups, signaling a return to military pressure. The move could escalate conflict in southwestern Colombia, particularly in Cauca and Valle del Cauca.
