Make peace



Our party strongly believes that there is no alternative to a joint people's movement comprising all the leftist and non-leftist democratic forces. Only such a nationwide movement can make bourgeoisie democracy complete. If the present ruling forces agree to make the people sovereign and find a permanent solution to the problem through peaceful talks then we are ready to take part in such a dialogue. We have already formed a dialogue committee for this purpose.

We hope that our immediate demands-including holding a roundtable conference, formation of an interim government and elections to the constituent assembly-are acceptable to all three forces in the country, namely the monarchy, parliamentary and proletariat revolutionary, to find a way out. We have constantly said we are ready to carry out either talks or military actions to this end. The other sides have not been able to internalise our demands that we put forward in a very responsible way considering the sensitive geo-political situation and present power balance in the country. We are not talking about carrying out a "New Democratic Revolution" but are only raising the issue of completing bourgeoisie democracy. It is very unfortunate and paradoxical that parliamentary forces failed to respond to our proposal in a manner we expected.

If the elections to the constituent assembly are held, the 'state authority' and 'sovereignty' said to be inherent in the monarchy will be formally transferred to the people. It will also facilitate the movement of parliamentary and proletariat forces. This may, in turn, resolve problems that have plagued us in the past.

As far as the issue of involvement of international forces is concerned, we want our domestic conflict resolved internally without the intervention of foreign forces. If the situation demands otherwise, we will have to accept a genuinely true, independent and impartial force or an institution in the role of a facilitator or mediator.
