In 2018, Colombia was the only country in the Americas with active armed conflicts. The Government of Colombia was involved in two low-intensity subnational armed conflicts: with the National Liberation Army (Ejército de Liberación Nacional, ELN) guerrilla group, and with a group of Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia, FARC) dissidents who have not accepted the 2016 peace agreement and have continued to fight. Implementation of the peace agreement between the Government of Colombia and the FARC remained tenuous, with President Iván Duque’s Democratic Centre (Centro Democrático) party opposed to many of its provisions, including those on land rights and national reconciliation.
