But that all slipped away as Colombians in a nation wide referendum voted against the peace agreement signed by the government and the FARC rebel group. Colombia's president, Juan Manuel Santos, has said that a ceasefire with leftist Farc rebels will end on 31 October, putting guerrillas on alert and adding pressure to salvage a peace deal with the rebels. The peace agreement, aimed at ending 52 years of armed conflict, was narrowly rejected by Colombians in a popular vote. Mr Uribe led the campaign against the peace deal. He says it was too lenient on the rebels and wants to renegotiate some of its more controversial points. The original agreement was welcomed internationally, with the EU's foreign representative Federica Mogherini calling it ''a turning point in the Colombian peace process''. So where does Colombia go from here? There is hope, as both sides have said that they remain committed to a peace deal, yet with no 'Plan B' to fall back on, the defeat of the 297-page peace accord has left the FARC commanders more isolated than ever, and Colombia facing an uncertain future.
