In The Battle for Peace, Santos provides a complete account of the long and difficult road to end the conflict: the initial exploratory meetings between members of the Colombian government and the FARC (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia)); the secret negotiations; the General Agreement of 2012 that laid out a formal peace process; and the lengthy discussions that eventually led to the final agreement in 2016.
