CPP/Ang Bayan: Religious sector expresses willingness to mediate peace negotiations

Propaganda article from the English language edition of Ang Bayan posted to the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) Website (Aug 7, 2021): Religious sector expresses willingness to mediate peace negotiations



Despite the resolution issued by the Anti-Terrorism Council declaring the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) as a “terrorist” organization, the religious sector expressed its willingness to mediate peace negotiations between the NDFP and the reactionary government of the Philippines.

The Philippine Ecumenical Peace Platform (PEPP) announced its plans to conduct public consultations and campaigns to support the resumption of negotiations with the people’s chosen newly elected leaders come 2022. In the upcoming elections, the group urged the people to consider aspiring candidates’ willingness to engage in peace talks.

On July 22, the PEPP criticized the resolution declaring the NDFP a “terrorist” group. They raised alarm over the possibilty of organizations, such as theirs, being tagged as “terrorists” for supporting peace negotiations.
