Andean Group - May 2020
Introduction
We begin this May edition of Latin American Regional Report: Andean Group by exploring the turbulent relationship between the Colombian government and the Ejército de Liberación Nacional (ELN) guerrilla group. Peace prospects have faced a number of setbacks already in 2020, undermined to some degree by the government’s apparent failure to understand the decentralised and often chaotic structure that underlies ELN action and ideology.
