Around 5,000 campesinos, indigenous people and Afro-descendants gathered at the Agrarian Summit in Bogota, where many charged that the countryside has been abandoned by the government and called for badly needed rural development policies that could even help resolve the current border crisis with Venezuela. A regional leader said that due to paramilitary violence during the Alvaro Uribe administration, many displaced people ended up in Venezuela where they avoided being killed. She and others called for a supportive relationship between the two countries. Natalia Margarita reports from Bogota for teleSUR.
