Petro Does Not Comply… The Struggle Continues – ELN
The systemic crisis of capitalism deepens, with the offensive of US imperialism to maintain world hegemony, damaging even its own allies and international institutions, which previously regulated the geopolitical and economic order; all the hotbeds of war are also escalating. The genocidal extermination of the Palestinian people by the Zionist State of Israel has all the logistical and military support of the United States and the complicity of most European countries. This barbarity marks an ethical turning point for humanity and demands effective solidarity.
Colombia, under the leadership of Petro’s government, continues to play the role of submissive pawn of empire and capital on this world stage. Petro presented himself as a progressive social democrat, little by little he has revealed his militarist and counterinsurgency character. He negotiates his governance with the oligarchy, offering a discourse of reform and peace, but his real commitment is to contain, lull, capture, and demobilize the social force that has been mobilizing in the face of the unbearable situation created by an unjust economic, political, and social model.
Social reforms are high-flown rhetoric for this government, which is gradually leading to disillusionment and frustration for the majority; false promises that become bargaining chips to negotiate with the same oligarchy. Petro is now calling the people to the streets, exploiting social struggles to pressure the oligarchy in his negotiations.
Petro’s government in its twilight, ends up suffocated by its corruption scandals, and giving more importance to the militaristic and warlike measures characteristic of the Colombian political regime. Thus, Colombia once again had a military defense minister; a state of siege was reimposed, under the guise of the State of Internal Unrest in Catatumbo; warplanes were purchased, and military spending was prioritized over social investment; the Amazon and Gorgona Island were handed over to US military control; drug trafficking and paramilitary gangs were sponsored and defended, continuing the social genocide and humanitarian crisis.
Despite the disillusionment that exists in broad sectors of the people, we are certain that the will to fight is not dormant. The popular insurgency has not been defeated and the ELN will remain firm in building the real changes that are needed.
The people continue to mobilize in the streets, in assemblies, town meetings, marches, strikes, blockades, and protests, on walls that paint the regime’s disgrace, in popular songs that keep alive the memory of the struggle, which has not been and will not be defeated. We must go beyond the minimal points of the referendum and return to the comprehensive agendas and banners that have been raised in the mobilizations of all sectors of the country in recent decades.
The lies and perfidy against the ELN do not deceive anyone; the facts and the righteousness of the revolutionary cause give us the reason and strength to follow the path of national liberation and the construction of socialism. Elenas and Elenos continue unwaveringly in the struggle, seeking to build solutions to the long night of oligarchic violence against the Colombian people.
Within the framework of the dialogues and negotiations between the government and the ELN, we prioritize advancing a process of participation of society, to build the agenda of transformations and the institutional changes necessary to achieve peace and social justice. Once again, the government did not live up to the commitments and aspirations of the Colombian people and failed to fulfill this social mandate.
Total peace is the continuity of the counterinsurgency model: total war, where paramilitarism is strengthened in favor of dispossession against the communities that defend their territories and projects of life. Petro shamelessly commits himself to defending and legalizing the gangs of narco-paramilitarism, while he raves about insults against the ELN and anyone who criticizes him.
In the absence of a peace policy from the government to engage in dialogue with a socially and politically motivated armed insurgency, the ELN has been left without an interlocutor. Having overcome this challenge, we remain willing to seek transformations, with the direct participation and power of the people, that will guarantee peace for Colombia.

The State of Exception Against the Autonomy of the Communities
By: Orlando Cienfuegos, correspondent for Antorcha Estéreo
Extension of the State of Exception in southern Chile ignites the Mapuche Struggle; approaches to understand this century-old conflict and its relationship with the State of Emergency in Colombian Catatumbo.
May 16 marked three years since the government of pseudo-leftist Gabriel Boric decreed the State of Constitutional Emergency in the southern macrozone of Chile, which covers the regions of La Araucanía and Biobío, in order to placate the processes of land recovery and liberation, as well as the territorial autonomy demanded by the Mapuche communities, the historical and majority inhabitants in this area of the country.
After the longest State of Exception in Chilean history, which resulted in militarization and repression of Mapuche communities, this century-old conflict, instead of being resolved, is becoming more entangled every day, leaving a balance of dozens of deaths, thousands of wounded and hundreds arbitrarily detained for fighting in favor of their communities. To top it off, this week, the Chilean oligarchy, represented in Chile’s National Congress, approved a 30-day extension for the “State of Emergency”, which confirms the criminalizing and repressive policy against the Mapuche nation and the communities that confront landowning interests, multinationals and a State that does not recognize them.
To understand this ethnic, political, economic, ecological and territorial conflict that has been going on for more than 100 years, it is necessary to specify some elements that, due to their complexity and similarity, allow us to draw a parallel with what the Catatumbo region is experiencing, in our Colombia, hit by a “State of Emergency” declared in the same way by the pseudo-leftist Gustavo Petro.
Elements to understand the conflict of the Chilean State with the Mapuche communities.
The first thing that is necessary to know is that the Mapuche are a population originating from the south of Chile and part of Argentina, who have inhabited the lands they now claim for thousands of years, since before the arrival of the Spaniards in the fifteenth century to Our America, therefore their claim must be understood not only in territorial but also spiritual terms because it is justly alleged that this territory and its sovereignty are an ancestral matter, where they have lived for thousands of years, which collects their traditions and culture, where their myths took place and their ancestors lived and are now buried; one of the few territories in Abya Yala (Latin America) that resisted the colonial invasion and remained unscathed until the consolidation of the Chilean State at the beginning of the twentieth century, at which time the Creole elite attacked this area, managing to conquer it with blood and fire, displacing the native communities to 5% of their ancestral territory.
By the way, Mapuche academic Verónica Figueroa Huencho, a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Latin American Studies at Stanford University and professor at the University of Chile, notes that the first explanation of the conflict is historical and lies in the European model with which the Chilean State was created, since “from the beginning, the State of Chile is built on an ‘ideal’ of homogeneity that does not consider indigenous peoples, forgetting our culture, our language, our system of representation. And so on for 200 years.” For this reason, these communities are not recognized in their integrity, disrespecting their Law of origin, major right or their own right, as well as their historical demands, which has led to a lack of dialogue, structural racism and ignorance.
A second element is the economic interests to which this macro-zone is subjected, which due to the fertility of its lands and its water sources, has been the subject of disputes, both by the landowners who, with the concession of the State, monopolize large tracts of land, as well as by the multinationals that carry out hydroelectric and nuclear projects in contravention and without consulting the Mapuche communities, who are displaced by these dynamics. An example of this problem is the usurpation of land that reached its peak with the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet, who gave forestry companies enormous amounts of land to plant pines and eucalyptus. Although some governments such as Michelle Bachelet’s have made promises of land restitution, the truth is that in practice they have not been fulfilled.
Thirdly, we have State Violence as a constant that, with the passage of time, further deepens the conflict and generates intergenerational wounds that reduce the possibilities of a dialogue process that puts an end to the conflict. In this sense, Verónica Figueroa says that thanks to the use of the Anti-Terrorist Law (against the Mapuche), based on a doctrine of the Internal Enemy, the conflict is increasingly fueled. State violence has slowed down certain conversations that could take place in another way, thus advancing a political solution to the conflict. However, the logic of war persists thanks to a “constant militarization in what the State defines as a “conflict zone”: raids on communities, persecution of political leaders, children who live and grow up under this logic” Figueroa
Similarities with the conflict in Colombian Catatumbo
In accordance with the above, it can be said that the State of Exception imposed in southern Chile has several points in common with the State of Emergency decreed by the Colombian government in Catatumbo at the beginning of 2025.
The first similarity we find is that this conflict dates back a long time, it is not something spontaneous and, on the contrary, it has roots in the problem of the distribution of land, as well as in the defense and autonomy of the territories, which have been built collectively by the communities but that the oligarch and centralist State has tried to usurp by displacing the settlers through force, landowners and multinationals, installing problems such as monocultures, the timber industry and extraction projects.
Similarly, in both countries, militarization and repression have been the formula with which the oligarch State, based on the policy of the Internal Enemy, has mediated this conflict, generating countless disappearances, displacements, wounded and deaths. With this policy, the criminalization of social protest and violence against social leaders is the order of the day.
To justify the actions of the repressive forces and delegitimize the organized struggle of the communities, the States have applied the strategy of flooding these areas with illicit crops, at the expense of the will of the communities, and then militarily attacking these territories. Thus, in the south of Chile, the mass media of disinformation are carrying out a communication campaign where they point out that “criminal organizations with firepower operate in the area that are dedicated to arms trafficking through the exchange of marijuana.” All to justify militarization and make these territories look like a “conflict zone.”
Finally, the most obvious example of the similarity between these two conflicts and the actions of the oligarch states is that in both territories, the governments have promised everything; redistribution of land, universities, job opportunities, etc., but as always, they promise and never deliver.
Solution and conclusion
In both countries, the solution to the problem involves the recognition of the struggle and the rights of the communities. This is why the historian and anthropologist José Bengoa explains that “as long as the colonialist and discriminatory mentality of the Chilean State does not change, the Mapuche conflict has very little chance of being resolved.”
This step would allow, as the ELN has insisted so much, that the solution to the conflict is political, through dialogue and the direct and binding participation of the communities, carrying out real transformations, without falling into promises that will later be unfulfilled. Undoubtedly, reparation for victims is an important point.
The freedom of political prisoners is another nodal point in this political solution, since it cannot be that, for claiming or protesting for the rights, territory, self-determination and sovereignty of the communities, there are thousands of detainees in the dungeons of the State.
From the National Liberation Army [ELN], we support the Mapuche struggle and the communities of Catatumbo for the liberation of their territories, convinced that no one knows, better than the people, how to organize and administer the territory, thus achieving a dignified life, both for rural, urban and native inhabitants.

Police Ambushed by ELN
PUBLIC STATEMENT
The alliance that the Police maintains with paramilitarism and criminal gangs such as the Tren de Aragua, the AK47, the Porras gang, the Pepino gang is clear. A recent example of this criminal alliance was the massive escape of 5 inmates, all linked to gangs operating in Cúcuta and the border, who were detained at the Villa del Rosario Police Station, last Sunday, April 6.
Just 6 days ago in this same municipality, 6 uniformed officers of this institution who were part of these gangs were captured, not counting the other arrests of police officers that have been registered in previous months at the stop, Villa del Rosario and Cúcuta. What security is General Willian Quintero talking about when his own subordinates are an active part of the criminality that plagues not only Villa del Rosario but the entire metropolitan area?
Not only do they deny the clear and historic alliance between the Colombian State and paramilitarism and in the face of the inability to solve the difficult situation of criminality that the city is experiencing, as a good formula learned from State terrorism they resort to false positives; proof of this was the news that was published on May 20, where it is misreported that a member of ELN was killed in combat with the government Army near the Model Prison of Cúcuta; we confirmed that the murdered person was alias “Pocho” who belonged to a criminal gang in the area, where days before they banished two women from the area. This gang operates in alliance with the army and the police.
On May 24 at 8:30 p.m., units of the FGUN, in a punitive action, ambushed a patrol of the Special Operations Group of the Police (GOES) with rifles, in Villa del Rosario, Norte de Santander. This resulted in the casualty of the deputy superintendent of the Police attached to the GOES, Luis Alfredo Argote Rincón, with 5 years of experience in this operations corps. And the mayor Édison Oswaldo Porras Carreño is seriously injured, the Hilux patrol in which they were traveling is also incinerated. Our units are withdrawn without incident.
The National Urban War Front reaffirms the certainty of popular victory, always together with the people.

The Feat of Gaza – Antonio García
Antonio García, Primer Comandante of the ELN
Among all the barbarity imposed by those who want the world to live according to their own views and privileges, subject to their interests, barbarism that in many cases leads to armed conflicts, the barbarity suffered by the Palestinian people stands out above any other.
The figures speak for themselves. Since a year and a half ago, when the Israeli army invaded the Palestinian territory, without taking heed in its military offensive between armed combatants and the civilian population, 51,000 of their sons and daughters have been killed; more than 31,000 bodies lie under rubble, according to credible reports, and reports of missing people exceed 4,100 victims. To make matters worse, 345,000 people in Gaza are in phase 5 famine, which is equal to total starvation. A murder in dribs and drabs.
Israeli barbarity and terror that has no limits: it has repeatedly subjected the population of the invaded territory to move again and again, in the narrow territory they inhabit, carrying their few belongings, subjecting them to conditions of existence of extreme cruelty, without water, with barely a food ration per day, at most, without the right to enjoy any recreation or study for their children. living in tents, punished on several occasions by the bombardments of the invading army’s aviation, as well as by the incursions of its infantry that seeks, guided by drones and intelligence systems controlled by state-of-the-art software, with identification of voices and faces, the guerrillas of the Popular Front, Islamic Jihad, Democratic Front and Al Aqsa Brigades, and in the pursuit of which women and men, young people, the elderly and children are targeted. According to the counterinsurgency military doctrine, they are all guerrillas, some in arms, others without, some shoot, others are their eyes and ears.
In this military invasion, all human rights have been ignored, cornering a people whose territory has experienced a notable reduction year after year, their lands have become inhabited by armed settlers or permanently protected, by one of the best armed and barbarity trained armies.
It is a people who, in the face of the reality of violence, continuous aggression, disrespect and humiliation, do not renounce living according to their self-determination, and whose youth, full of hatred for the violence they suffer day by day, has no other option than to fight armed for freedom and respect. For them, invaded as they are, the way to evade the enemy is through tunnels, building in fact an underground city, through which they manage to evade the espionage and constant control that the invaders intend to make of their movements.
To try to get them out of these invisible trenches, the enemy uses bombs of up to 1,000 kilos, discharging several at the same time that they can collapse concrete constructions, at depth, of up to seven floors. The magnitude of what has been built reveals the immense effort made by thousands of people, to be able to raise and fortify their defenses, aware of the power of the enemy they face.
It is an enemy that does not contain itself before any rule, humanitarian principle or law, and by trying to capture, dead or alive, the guerrillas who oppose them, not only destroy the fortifications of sovereignty, but also devastate all homes and urban infrastructure, killing and wounding dozens of people in each attack.
There are air strikes and advanced infantry attacks in which it is becoming clear that the use of robotic and guided weapons is already the norm. There, the struggle of humans against remotely controlled machines is a daily occurrence, by systems engineers who do not risk their lives and destroy those of tens of thousands. A daily invasion and attack carried out, moreover, with the constant support of the United States army, which provides them with all kinds of weapons and supports them in intelligence by providing them with all the information collected, by their satellites directed over that territory, as well as the accompaniment and advice of several of the largest software multinationals registered in that country and that provide them with everything they require in this area.
Yet, with thousands of soldiers on the ground, with hundreds of armored tanks roaming the streets of Gaza and surrounding cities, with dozens of aircraft conducting combat intelligence or bombing entire neighborhoods, with the possibility of renewing its troops whenever it deems necessary, the invading army has not been able to defeat a few thousand guerrillas determined to fight for the freedom of their people. for their dignity, for respect for their territory and the right to be sovereign.
In their effort, which involves absolute mobility, the implementation of an armored communication system against eavesdropping, with the maximum use of surprise, as well as the use of all kinds of traps, which hinder enemy mobility and cause casualties that demoralize them, the guerrillas of the Palestinian resistance are teaching a lesson to the peoples of the world, teaching day by day that an army inferior in units and logistics, as Vietnam once did, can contain its opponent, resist and win.
The events summarized here clearly indicate, despite what is commonly said, that the right to rebellion is as valid as it was the norm decades ago, when the decolonization of the world advanced by leaps and bounds. New forms of colonialism take shape and, as a reaction, new and dynamic expressions of resistance are expressed and shown.
As a lesson for all the peoples of the world, we also have that the reality experienced today in Palestinian territory allows us to glimpse the first of the latest generation urban wars, one in which human beings confront machines, a remote-controlled war, with hundreds of drones in constant action, armored combat systems of all kinds, satellites monitoring the lives of thousands every second, and underground corridors, a new type of trenches, built with the use of engineering and the conscious arms of thousands of people.
A feat that can only be achieved through social leadership, as well as recognition among the people. Something already explicit when the representatives of the Palestinian resistance were elected eighteen years ago, by popular vote to direct the destiny of Gaza.
Politics, popular participation, legitimacy, a triad that gives way to leadership and effective armed defense.
Che had already taught it: nothing without the people, everything is possible with the people.
