Rather than launching an uncompromising campaign to defeat the insurgents, Santos has pursued the more politically challenging course: a negotiated settlement. This suggests a willingness to do whatever it takes to protect long-suffering rural communities from continued violence.
桑托斯并没有采取决不妥协、务必打败叛军的立场，而是追求在政治上挑战更大的做法：谈判和解。这显示出他愿意承担一切后果以保护长期遭受持续暴力打击的农村社会。
