Cuba urges Colombia, ELN rebels to follow peace talks protocol


HAVANA (Reuters) - Cuba called on the Colombian government and ELN rebels on Friday to follow the protocol of the peace talks it had been hosting and implement measures needed, including security guarantees, to allow 10 ELN leaders in Havana to return to Colombia.

Cuba has found itself in a diplomatic bind since Colombia's President Ivan Duque asked it last week to extradite those leaders following an ELN car bomb blast at a police academy in Bogota that killed 21 people.
