China sincerely hopes that the peace process in Nepal will
continue to advance, said Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu in
Beijing Friday.
Nepal's ruling Seven-Party Alliance (SPA) government reached an
agreement with insurgents early on Wednesday morning on all major
contentious issues, raising hopes of permanent peace in the
mountainous country.
The parties agreed on all major issues including the role of the
monarchy, an interim parliament and interim government, elections
to the Constituent Assembly (CA) and arms management.
China is happy to see the big steps taken in the Nepalese peace
process, and welcomes the efforts made by the parties concerned to
achieve permanent peace, Jiang said.
China sincerely hopes that further progress would be made in
Nepal's peace process and that the country would experience peace,
stability and development as soon as possible, the spokeswoman
noted.
