Colombia agrees Farc political participation

Colombian Farc rebel leaders and government negotiators have agreed on a political future for the left-wing group should a peace deal be reached.

At the ongoing talks in Cuba, both sides agreed on guarantees, conditions and support for the creation of new political parties.

Colombia's largest rebel group and the government are yet to discuss another four items on the agenda.

The peace talks aim to end nearly 50 years of armed conflict.
