Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos visited Parliament on 4 November as part of his tour to Europe to garner political support and financial aid for peace negotiations with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) insurgents in his country. "We have sought Europe's support in the peace process and I thank you so much for the support that we have received today," he said. "Europe has shown to the world that it's possible to leave war behind and build peace. Now it's Colombia's turn."
