Colombian politicians Clara Rojas and Consuelo González, who were set free Thursday by the Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces (FARC), met with their closest relatives in Maiquetía international airport, near Caracas.

The aircraft arrived with both women accompanied by officials with the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Venezuelan Interior and Justice Minister, Ramón Rodríguez Chacín.

International news network Telesur broadcast images of Rojas and González hugging their beloved, who were waiting for them together with Venezuelan Government officials.

"I am living a dream, I have no words, please understand me," Clara de Rojas, mother of one of the two women released, told journalists while walking with her daughter for the first time since 2002. Meanwhile, the former hostage was smiling, reported AP.
