Weekend Recap: Colombia in the News

Colombia played an oddly large role in Mexico's weekend news: first, an UNAM professor was deported to Colombia because of his links to the FARC. This made Álvaro Uribe quite happy.

Also, a delegation of Mexican pols was in Bogotá this weekend, which led to César Duarte saying that Mexico should learn from Colombia's security successes (basically, tools for attacking criminal financial networks and cleaning up the police). Chihuahua's governor was also in town, which led to the collaborative agreements between the state and Colombia.
