Quotes-start.png "Indeed, Colombia, America's strongest ally in the region, is also Latin America's most remarkable success story. In six years, President Alvaro Uribe has turned a country beset by Communist rebels, drug cartels and paramilitary gangs into a reasonably stable democracy. The country's murder rate plummeted 40 percent from 2002 to 2006, while its economic growth rate has been consistently among the highest in the region. Free trade with America means a chance to cement those gains - something Colombia desperately needs." Quotes-end.png
