BEIJING, May 8 (Xinhua) -- China sincerely hopes all parties in Nepal can
maintain unity and work together to push forward the peace process, Chinese
Foreign Ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu said here Friday.
He made the remarks when asked to comment on the current political
situation in Nepal.
Ma said the issue was an internal affair for Nepal, but China, as a friend
and neighbor, hoped Nepal could realize political stability and economic
development.
Nepali Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal, also chairman of the Unified
Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) (UCPN-M), resigned on Monday after President
Ram Baran Yadav overruled his move to sack Chief of Army Staff General
Rookmangud Katawal for alleged disobedience.
UCPN-M supporters reportedly took to streets Thursday to protest against
the Nepali president's actions.
