Colombia's ambassador to Spain Carlos Rodado Noriega gestures while speaking at the start of the "International caravan for the release of hostages", an organized caravan of Colombian motorcycle riders including family members of hostages and ex-hostages, who plan to ride from Madrid to the Vatican to call for the release of hostages around the world, in Madrid, November 6, 2009. The initiative, which started in Colombia to call for the release of Colombian hostages, set out on a European leg on Friday which will run from Madrid to the Vatican to call for the release of hostages worldwide. The group hopes to deliver a "Helmet of Freedom" to Pope Benedict XVI at the end of the journey. REUTERS/Paul Hanna (SPAIN SOCIETY CONFLICT CRIME LAW POLITICS)
