The Spin

Narrative A

This report is crucial to the Colombian peace process as it gives a neutral analysis of the conflict. It will bring justice to the victims of the war while providing recommendations to build sustainable peace in the nation.

Narrative B

This is a biased report that failed to analyze the guerrillas' responsibilities and their relations with foreign powers. The so-called truth commission made this clear by taking political advantage of its position to support Petro's election.
