Colombia is coming to terms with the political fallout from Sunday's plebiscite, during which voters rejected a peace deal the government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) had spent the past four years crafting. Now officials in Bogota are left with a tough question: How can the deal be amended to satisfy both the FARC and the Colombian public? During the negotiations, it became clear that any peace agreement with the FARC would involve significant compromise on the part of the government . The aging leftist militants who lead the FARC had no reason to demobilize if demobilization meant imprisonment or extradition to the United States. They naturally insisted on amnesty for their crimes. The subject of political participation, revolving around the question of whether the rebels' five-decade struggle against the government would result in political gains, was also central to striking the deal.
