Colombia President Rejects FARC Ceasefire

Not until there's a final agreement

|

Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos has rejected calls by Farc rebels for a ceasefire once peace talks begin with the government in October.

"We will not give anything until we get the final agreement," Mr Santos said.

He was speaking after the left-wing rebels said they were prepared to disarm and would seek a truce when the peace talks opened in Oslo, Norway.
