UNITED NATIONS –  Colombia's government on Wednesday submitted the peace agreement with the FARC guerrilla group to the U.N. Security Council.
The agreement with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, "is a contribution to world peace," President Juan Manuel Santos said.


Santos submitted the document to the Security Council's president in the presence of U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who confirmed that he would travel to Cartagena next week for the signing of the peace agreement.
"Here is the product of this work in which we all helped, and it is a contribution to world peace," Santos said during the ceremony, which took place ahead of a Security Council session to discuss the situation in the Middle East.
