COLOMBIA REPORTS/ In an interview in his family's newspaper El Tiempo, candidate Juan Manuel Santos believes if Green Party candidate Antanas Mockus wins the presidency, the nation could return to its troubled past.

You can see in any media [source] that they only criticize this side [Santos' campaign] and they only have praise for him..." said Santos.
