| SODA: In the news, Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this past friday for his efforts to end the decades long civil war going on in the Colombia. The war, which has lasted more than fifty years, has killed 220,000 people and displaced over 7 million more. But while being very popular outside of Colombia, his approval rating has slumped below 30 percent in the recent months and the latest peace referendum failed to pass. The current ceasefire agreement will expire on October 31. |
