Panama: Boosting cooperation with a key ally
President Juan Carlos Varela recently announced plans to set up a special group with his Colombian peer, Juan Manuel Santos, to monitor the peace process between the Colombian government and Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (Farc) guerrilla group.
