Biased
write-up
No thanks for a biased write-up on the remarks
made by the ambassadors of some western countries (Non-Leftist parties support West’s
remarks- TKP April 16, 2001). We must understand firstly that it has been an old policy of
the US to interfere in Nepal’s internal affairs, and carry out activities against
China and India through Nepal. The military and financial support given by the US to the
Khampas in the early 70s is an example of this. Therefore, their recent statement at a
time when the leftist parties are protesting against the Koirala government does not
surprise me.
What is most mysterious is the Foreign
Ministry’s silence in this regard and the Chairman of the Institute of Foreign
Affairs Mohan Lohani’s remark that it was a ‘statement of principle’. One
can see the smoke of conspiracy of foreign powers trying to meddle in the internal affairs
of a sovereign country like Nepal and the foreign ministry’s (because of
Lohani’s statement) involvement in this. Would the concerned kindly answer?
