Nepal’s peace process at difficult phase: UNMIN

UCPN-M has said that their demonstrations will be peaceful. The Government has said that no unnecessary force will be used. But the fear is high.

The Representative of the UN Secretary General and UNMIN Chief, Karin Landgren, has said that- “Nepal’s unique national peace process has arrived at a difficult phase”. She added -“There are grave concerns about the direction that it may take in the coming days”. 

United CPN (Maoists) is organizing May Day rallies and celebrations in major cities across the country on May 1. But after 1 May, the situation is unpredictable, and may seriously endanger the peace process.

Speaking at the press conference today Landgren strong urged “the parties to come to an agreement rapidly, before this situation escalates. The major parties have indicated publicly, and also emphasized to me, their willingness to reach an agreement”.

She expressed deep concerns that “despite these peaceful intentions, potential spoilers of the peace process could provoke a clash”. She added-“ I appeal to all parties and groups to exercise maximum restraint, and underline that unity amongst the parties has been the driving force of the peace process, and remains the best prospect for permanent peace in Nepal”.
