Pagtugon ni Sison sa panawagang global ceasefire kasunod ng COVID-19 scare, positive development – Palasyo

Positive development para sa Palasyo ng Malakanyang ang pagtugon ni Communist Party of the Philippines founding chairman Jose Maria Sison sa panawagan ni United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres na global ceasefire sa gitna ng kinakaharap na problema sa COVID-19.

Ayon kay Presidential spokesman Salvador Panelo, magandang hakbangin ang utos ni Sison sa New People’s Army na magkaroon ng tigil putukan sa pamahalaan.

“At this crucial time, the Filipino people deserve and need a safe and peaceful environment where there is unimpeded movement of health workers, medical supplies, food and other needs and services, in view of the current state of calamity and public health emergency. We therefore welcome the cooperation of all, including those in the Left, to realize our goal of absolute peace during these times,” pahayag ni Panelo.

Umaasa aniya ang Palasyo na magiging sinsero ang rebeldeng grupo sa kanilang pangako na tigil putukan.

“As Mr. Sison proposes concord to be realized during this global health crisis, it is also our hope that their group’s armed component on the ground would show genuine sincerity in laying down their arms and not use the occasion to mobilize their forces. The Palace looks forward that they would make good — and stay true to — their words,” pahayag ni Panelo.
