The Carter Center welcomes the recent agreement by Nepal's political parties to address key outstanding issues in the peace process, including the integration and rehabilitation of Maoist combatants, drafting of the constitution, and other important points.
 
"I commend Nepal's political parties for reaching consensus on these critical and challenging issues. Nepal's leaders have once again demonstrated their statesmanship and their capacity to resolve differences through dialogue. Swift implementation of this agreement by all can consolidate the historic achievements of Nepal's peace process," said former U.S. President and Carter Center Co-Founder Jimmy Carter.
 
The Carter Center remains dedicated to supporting the people of Nepal as they continue along the path to sustainable peace and prosperity.
