Ambassadorship

President Uribe offered Iguarán an ambassadorship to

FARC-EP. Gontard, who was working with the permission of the Swiss and Colombian authorities as a mediator, was suspected to have gone beyond his role by aiding the FARC rebels and their associates in Europe and was called in for questioning, he however was also a close friend and associate of Swiss Federal Councillor Micheline Calmy-Rey who is also the Swiss Foreign Minister in charge of approving ambassadorial appointments to Switzerland; in the end Iguarán was dropped from consideration to this mission.[3]

Nonetheless, President Uribe offered him another diplomatic post, and this time the host nation permitted it; Iguarán was sworn in as

letters of credence to Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak on 27 June 2010.[5]

He served as ambassador until early 2012.[6]
