Annan welcomes agreement between Nepal parties, Maoists
Saturday - 26th November 2005 |
United Nations, Nov. 24. (PTI): United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan has welcomed the understanding reached between Nepal's seven-party opposition alliance and Maoist rebels aimed at restoring multiparty democracy in the Himalayan Kingdom.
In a statement, Annan strongly urged the CPN-M to extend its unilateral ceasefire beyond December and to fulfill its commitment to human rights, and called for a reciprocal ceasefire by the Government of King Gyanendra to help end "a conflict that has brought immense suffering to the people of Nepal" since it began in 1996.
The UN head is carefully studying the details of the understanding, his spokesman said.
"The Secretary-General remains ready to assist in any manner that would help bring about a peaceful resolution of the conflict," he added.
