Latin American nations end crisis with handshake - Yahoo! News: "Latin American nations end crisis with handshake" SANTO DOMINGO (Reuters) - The presidents of Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela ended a border dispute on Friday with a summit handshake after a week of regional diplomacy in the face of troop buildups. "And with this ... this incident that has caused so much damage (is) resolved," leftist Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa said before standing up and shaking hands with his U.S.-backed conservative Colombian counterpart Alvaro Uribe. The dispute erupted on Saturday when Colombia raided inside Ecuador to kill a commander of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, and its resolution brought the summit to a surprise ending after acrimonious moments, including Correa calling Uribe a liar.
