Colombia: 6 police officers killed in combat; rebels want to negotiate

Leftist guerillas from the FARC killed six police officers during confrontations in southwestern Colombia. Last week, a FARC spokesman admitted that the group is willing to negotiate peacefully with the government. However, the FARC wants to negotiate solely on their terms and family members of hostages, like politician Ingrid Betancourt, are doubtful of the FARC’s supposed intentions.
