Colombia is confident that the governments of its neighboring countries are going to honor the commitments they made at the Organization of American States (OAS) to fight the criminals and armed groups that may settle in their territories, said Foreign Affairs Minister Fernando Araújo.

For Araújo, the major breakthrough of the OAS resolution that put an end to a crisis that lead Colombia and Ecuador to cut diplomatic ties was the creation of a special taskforce to verify compliance with the countries' commitment to fight crime. His comments came in an interview with Colombian news agency Colprensa, quoted AFP.
