According to the publication, this year's list includes characters who found a way to shape a new world.
The profile of Timochenko written by the prestigious publication underlines "the fundamental role that the former guerrilla leader had in the negotiation process that the FARC carried out with the Government".
The publication continues: ”Timochenko was instrumental in keeping the FARC in the turbulent and uncertain peace process that was advanced with the Colombian government (...) his diplomatic skills were crucial to the success of the agreement signed on November 24, 2016”.
Rodrigo Londoño appears in the list together with figures of global relevance such as the president of France, Emmanuel Macron, or the ex-American soldier, Chelsea Manning, accused of having leaked secret US documents to Wikileaks.
