After reading out the text, Laura Villa stated that the formulations of the guerrillas in talks collect popular demands and are not a "gift list", but the record of rights that have been violated to the people and the State has the duty to guarantee them without further delay.

The FARC-EP considered urgent and necessary to end the concentration of land ownership that, in their opinion, has resulted in the deepening of extreme inequality, expressed in a Gini coefficient (a measure of income inequality within a country) greater than 0.89, "the most outrageous and unfair on the continent."
