Just so I understand this, the Colombian government would pay $15 million to itself and wouldn't have to take any action to control the armed paramilitaries that are closely linked to the government. They could essentially get away with murder on a prepayment plan.
I want to come back to the fact that the number of trade unionists being killed has gone up. There are increasing problems with people being forced off the land--often working with companies that have been cited. There are allegations that companies like Nestlé, Coca-Cola, Chiquita, and others have been directly connected to collusion with the military.
On the idea that this government is trying to push through this agreement, does it essentially reward bad behaviour?
