i ha td toived take a road to san vincente wher government was having peace talks with the farc. those talks ended two days before my trip. the president of columbia at the time was very adamant in saying we are reclaiming this zone. we are evicting the farc from the zone. when i arrived, everything was militarize. the president was going to the same place i was at the same moment. in the moment i was going to take the trip, and enter the cars to begin the road, my escort received an order from the president saying they could not come with me. for me to -- this was a political move, he did not want me to go and if by withdrew my security -- he was able to control my campaign. i thought it was serious. i decided i had to go. i went with no bodyguard. the road was clear. there was maybe soldiers everywhere. i thought it was secure enough and i stumbled in a group of armed guys with guns and uniforms and in colombia, we used to know that the boats those guys -- the boots were leather, they were the army and rubber boots were the farc. tavis: was a mistake to have gone down that road
