Follow live the delivery of the final report of the Truth Commission

This Tuesday the Truth Commission delivers its final report.

The Truth Commission, chaired by the Jesuit priest Francisco de Roux, formally began its work on November 30, 2018 with the purpose of delivering a final report that dignifies the victims and sheds light on the barbarity of the armed conflict.

Originally, he was to complete his task in three years, but in the face of the pandemic, a decision by the Constitutional Court extended his term until this Tuesday, June 28, with another two months to socialize the final report.

The Commission has worked tirelessly.

He has heard nearly 30,000 testimonies from victims, indigenous peoples, Afro-descendants, peasants, soldiers, members of illegal armed groups, politicians, businessmen, and even former presidents Ernesto Samper (1994-1998), César Gaviria (1990-1994), Juan Manuel Santos, Andrés Pastrana (1998-2002) and Álvaro Uribe (2002-2010), the strongest critic of the agreements.

It also received more than a thousand reports from different organizations.

President Iván Duque was not at that inaugural ceremony at the beginning of his term, nor will he attend the delivery of the final report at the Jorge Eliécer Gaitán theater in Bogotá, since he is visiting Europe.

Yes, the president-elect, Gustavo Petro, is expected to take office on August 7.
