Talk:Humanitarian exchange

Details and suggestions
I'll see if I can add (with proper references) a few things to this article later in the week/month, if possible, but for now I might as well mention a couple of details.


 * It should be made clear that FARC has also kidnapped many more people than those currently subject to this particular "exchange". For example, those kidnapped due to their "law 002", as a form of extortion, are not part of any possible deal, at least not at this stage. I believe FARC itself has talked about this subject, using its own unique vocabulary and reasoning of course.


 * The exchange issue per se began to be publicly debated during President Andrés Pastrana's administration. During the talks FARC wanted, and explicitly called for, an "exchange law" (ley de canje) to make such exchanges permanent. In other words, the "canje" itself preceded its "humanitarian" nature.


 * In fact, and this is a big precedent that needs to be included, Pastrana actually negotiated with FARC the release of the soldiers mentioned in this article, and a number of allegedly sick guerrillas were also freed in exchange, firmly introducing the "humanitarian" concept.


 * But FARC did not release the "higher profile" hostages, and they kept kidnapping people as a way to pressure the government, including several of those now subject to any future new accord. Pastrana's book "La Palabra Bajo Fuego" has a lot of details about all this, as well as photos of the official accords signed between the parties.

That's it for now. Juancarlos2004 05:38, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

There should therefore be a disambiguation page added to make this clear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.76.223.85 (talk) 12:18, 9 August 2008 (UTC) Yes - there should - can someone add this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.189.106.4 (talk) 23:23, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
