According to a U.S. indictment, Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela's President, met with top FARC leaders, including Rodrigo Londoño ('Timochenko'), Luciano Marín ('Iván Márquez'), and Seuxis Hernández ('Jesús Santrich'), in 2013 to discuss a debt stemming from their joint involvement in drug trafficking. Maduro agreed to supply explosives from Venezuela's military reserves to settle this debt, potentially enhancing the FARC's capacity for armed actions in Colombia. This meeting occurred during the FARC's peace negotiations with the Colombian government.
