Cessation of armed operations by COVID – 19 to AGC
Our communities live in territories where violence persists in various forms.
We call upon you combatants of all forces to protect your own lives and the lives of us civilians who are in our territories.
We call on you as the main commander of the FFMM and PONAL to protect the lives of the official combatants and the life of us, the civilians who are in our territories with a cessation of hostilities, we call on all armed groups operating in our regions based on the WHO declaration of the pandemic called COVID – 19, which is already causing irreparable loss of human life.
In particular, we propose:
- Inform all its personnel of the COVID – 19 pandemic and the consequences for their lives and those of those who are in contact with them.
- Train them in preventive mechanisms.
- Only if there were attacks and non-compliance by opponents of this proposal, which is implicit in the Global Humanitarian Agreement by the Pandemic.
This request is also made explicitly to FFMM and Police, security agencies, eradicators; we have report of the virus infection in FFMM personnel of the United States.
4.Remove your personnel from our environments or communities and place them at distances that prevent the virus from spreading.
5.Refrain from convening any kind of mandatory meeting.
Our communities in some regions are experiencing droughts, other regions affected by winter. Their lives and our lives are precious. The strategies armed for reasons of humanity, of all humanity must stop for at least two weeks, until 1 April, starting tomorrow with an extension until at least 30 May.
The pandemic has very severe social, environmental and economic effects that are calling us to take the path of a different society. Today no one is exempt from dying from this virus or the most powerful in weapons and wealth.
Let’s us take advantage of COVID – 19 to think about the life of each one of you, in the life of each of us, in the life of the country, assume the reflection in your crews, fronts, brigades, battalions, commanders. Nothing remains of our arrogance, nor of our vain pride. It is the time of solidarity and from it peace in a new democracy.
Let’s invite you to listen to our request for a partial cessation of hostilities.
Life is teaching us. It is a time for everyone.The isolation experienced by the citizenry in the country must lead us, perhaps, to reflect on the confinement and lack of food for years that we have lived in the regions.
We need a social, environmental and legal state that consolidates a transversal and integral peace, with this crisis the importance of an inclusive country without corruption in cooperation with all of humanity, in which you can contribute, it will be recognized.
Let’s start now!
