QUOTES

Reconciliation is not a synonym of revenge. Neither implies deep forgiveness. Reconciliation is a constant search for the truth, justice and compensation; for social and economic justice within a strengthened democracy; judicial security, political stability, social advances and sustainable development. For this reason, the peace agreements offer ideal opportunities to promote the socio economic, political and judicial reforms and necessary for reconciliation.
