General (Ret.) Alberto Mejia | How Colombia Defeated the FARC | Part 2 | TFP #111

In Part 2 of The Focus, I continue my conversation with former Commander of the Colombian Armed Forces, General Alberto José Mejía Ferrero. Together, we explore the strategic lessons from Colombia's experience, the continuing challenge posed by the National Liberation Army (ELN), Venezuela's role in regional security, and how the rise of drone warfare is reshaping the future of conflict.

This is not simply a discussion about Colombia. It is a conversation about how democracies confront insurgencies, adapt to changing threats, and translate battlefield success into lasting strategic outcomes.

🎥 Watch now on The Focus.

I'd love to hear your thoughts: What lessons should today's military and political leaders take from Colombia's experience?
