COLOMBIAN President Juan Manuel Santos sought talks with Marxist guerillas and their pro-war opponents on Tuesday night to salvage a hard-won peace accord after voters rejected it in a referendum.
Mr Santos also extended the ceasefire with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Farc) until October 31.
Farc leader Timoleon “Timochenko” Jimenez tweeted: “And after that, does the war continue?”
