SECRETARY KERRY: This is a very impressive display of Colombia's commitment to try to
make a difference in this effort. We all know it's a very difficult one. And I particularly
want to express our gratitude to those police officers, those members of the military also,
who have been wounded or have sacrificed their lives in the effort to try to make the world
safe from narcotics traffickers, criminals and terrorists.
As a friend of Colombia, President Obama wants the people of this country to know that when
you achieve that peace, the United States of America will do everything in our power
to help respect it and to help you be able to implement it. And obviously at that point
in time, we will have discussions about what else may be necessary in order to guarantee
its success and sustainability over the long term.
