Bogotà (Agenzia Fides) – "All this must be denounced since it is one part of the things we have to do, the other part is to fight against the problem, because there exists a sort of masked protection of these crimes, on the part of the very people who run nations: governments in one way or the other, put them (the criminals) at their side. Masked protection of illegal trafficking of human persons is difficult to reveal", this was said by Archbishop Augusto Castro Quiroga of Tunja also chairman of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Colombia,
Archbishop Castro Quiroga was speaking yesterday30 July at a press conference against human trafficking in Colombia.
The Bishop also spoke of thesad situation in Colombia: "a realty: the recruitment of child soldiers by FARC. Although FARC as a group is conscious of the damage caused, they have yet to come to a convinced decision to say no to child soldiers in their guerrilla groups. This is a decision FARC must make, otherwise ever greater harm will be done ".
In his intervention, Colombia’s vice interior minister Carlos Ferro Solanilla, reiterated the government’s responsibility and commitment to continue working to identify public policies able to reveal this problem at both national and regional levels.
