The National Liberation Army, one of the last remaining left-wing militant groups in Colombia, announced they would cease military activities to allow Colombians to vote in the country’s general elections on May 27. The front-runner is right-wing politician Ivan Duque, a member of ex-president Alvaro Uribe’s party. Uribe is now facing murder accusations. Juan Manuel Santos, the incumbent who won a Nobel Peace Prize for negotiating peace with another militia, the FARC, last year, is very low in the polls.
