Quotes

Headlined the Manila Standard Today, "Norway Drops Peace Gab Role" (2 May): "As third-party facilitator of the peace talks between the government and Communist insurgents, Norway has agreed that formal negotiations will be terminated, Presidential Peace Adviser Teresita Deles said yesterday. "Added Deles: 'In our discussion with Norwegian facilitator, Ambassador Ture Lundh, last month, we mutually established that the NDF 'killed' the special track that they themselves proposed.'"The formal peace talks have been stalled since February, 2011, while the special track bogged down early this year. Deles said the 'new approach' being formulated by government 'will offer a better chance' of bringing peace. "NDF chief negotiator Luis Jalandoni accused the Aquino III Administration of 'acting irresponsibly' in issuing 'bellicose statements' on the termination of the negotiations. Jalandoni said the 1995 Joint Agreement on Safety and Immunity Guarantees required a written notice be given to terminate the peace negotiations." WE PRAY NORWAY WON'T EVER RELINQUISH ITS ROLE AS THE WORLD CHAMPION FOR PEACEMAKING (APART FROM THE U N ), AND HOME OF THE PRESTIGIOUS NOBEL PEACE PRIZE!!"
"This will have an impact on the competitiveness of our companies, and of our economy as a whole."
...Esquivel, who was held prisoner by the junta for more than two years, said in a statement Friday that there was no joy in the death of Videla. "He was a man who went through life causing a lot of damage and betraying the values of an entire country" Esquivel said
1980 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Adolfo Perez Esquivel, who publicized the junta's abuses, said Videla "never repented of the crimes, and he is taking a lot of information with him."
