Maoist chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal (Prachanda)returned to Nepal wrapping up his nine-day trip to the UK, Russia and Belarus Tuesday
Chairman of Unified CPN (Maoist) Pushpa Kamal Dahal speaking to journalists after his arrival from his Europe tour at Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu, Tuesday, Aug 18 09. Dahal had gone to the UK on August 9 at the invitation of Samyukta Nepali Morcha to train his party supporters on the latest strategy adopted by the party after the central committee meeting.
During his visit, Dahal addressed interaction programmes organised by various Nepali organisations in UK, Belarus and Russia.
Speaking to reporters on his arrival at the Tribhuvan International Airport, Dahal said the Nepali Diaspora in Europe wants a national government under Maoist leadership. "They are of the opinion that peace process cannot reach a logical conclusion without a Maoist-led government," he added.
He was accompanied by his spouse Sita and son Prakash during the trip.
Former Prime Minister Dahal, who returned to Nepal shortly after Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal left for India, said he would strive to form a national government under the leadership of his party.
Stating that there is a possibility of serious political confrontation if the current impasse persisted, Dahal said he would start dialogue with leaders of other parties to find a consensus.
He also argued that the stalemate in the parliament is not because of his party but because of the refusal of the ruling coalition to debate the President's move in the House. nepalnews.com
