Manila Resumes Peace Talks With MILF
The Philippines largest Muslim separatist group resumed negotiations yesterday with government representatives, with a warning that another failure to make a breakthrough could lead to renewed hostilities. The issue on ancestral domain must be resolved first before we can resume formal peace talks. We cannot have perpetual peace negotiations, Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) spokesman Eid "Lipless Eddie" Kabalu told Arab News by phone. He also warned that the prevailing truce between government and MILF forces would be difficult to maintain if no political settlement is seen to be forthcoming.Posted by: Fred 2007-10-25 |
