Colombian President Gustavo Petro on Thursday met leaders of the ELN guerrilla group in Bogota for the first time, as a six-month ceasefire came into force. The Colombian government resumed peace talks with the ELN after Petro was elected a year ago, as the leftist leader seeks to put an end to decades of armed conflict with guerrilla groups.
