BOGOTA (Reuters) - The leader of Colombia's FARC rebels group invited ex-president Alvaro Uribe, a vocal critic of the guerillas' peace process with the current government, to meet with him in an open letter on Saturday, in a bid to bolster the peace talks.

Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) leader Rodrigo Londono, better known by his nom de guerre Timochenko, said he would meet Uribe in Havana, Cuba, where the negotiations are being held, or in another location to discuss "the future of our nation."
