Colombia's EU-backed deal will entrench the power of far-right
paramilitary mafias

The Colombian government has lobbied hard to win international
respectability for a peace plan that human-rights organisations believe
will entrench the political and economic power of a mafia guilty of
drug trafficking, extortion and gross human-rights abuses. The
endorsement given by the EU's council of ministers last month is
counted as a major diplomatic victory.
The plan, enshrined in the Justice and Peace Law that was passed after
fierce debate last June, is judged by several international
organisations to be so flawed that it is unlikely to bring either
justice or peace. The law has yet to be reviewed by Colombia's
constitutional court and could be overturned, but that may be too late
to slow the government's rush to implement the plan.
