MULING ni-renew ng pamahalaan at Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) ang kanilang commitment sa Bangsamoro peace process.
Kapuwa rin sumang-ayon ang mga ito na pabilisin ang implementasyon lalo pa’t dalawang taon na lamang ang natitira sa transition period.
Nauna rito, nagpulong sina Cesar Yano, chairman ng peace implementing panel ng gobyerno at Mohagher Iqbal, chairman ng peace implementing panel ng MILF sa Davao City, araw ng Sabado, kauna-unahan sa ilalim ng administrasyon ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr., para pag-usapan ang apat na “decision points” para pabilisin ang implementasyon ng Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB).
“The Parties agreed to intensify resource mobilization to support the implementation of the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro by engaging with international state and non-state donors who are willing to support the normalization process, subject to appropriate rules and regulations on the acceptance of grants, donation or any form of development assistance. The modalities for this shall be further discussed by the Parties,” ayon sa kalatas.
“The panels also agreed to further review proposals for the Armed Forces of the Philippines Redeployment Parameters and Areas for the Joint Security Assessment, Transition Plan for the Joint Peace and Security Teams, and the Intergrated Framework on the implementation of camps transformation program in the initial 33 villages of six MILF camps,” ayon pa rin sa kalatas.
Ang iba pang kasunduan ay ang paglikha sa socioeconomic study committee para pag-usapan at irekumenda ang approval ng “components, implementation framework, and funding strategies for the socioeconomic development packages for the decommissioned combatants and camps transformation.”
Kapuwa sinabi nina Yano at Iqbal na pinag-usapan nila ang law enforcement operations sa Datu Paglas, Maguindanao del Sur noong Hunyo 18, nagresulta ng pagkamatay ng 7 di umano’y miyembro ng MILF.
Ipinahayag naman ng dalawang lider ang kanilang simpatiya sa mga naulilalng pamilya.
Pinasalamatan din ng mga ito si Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. para sa “swiftly directing” ang Justice department na magsagawa ng imbestigasyon subalit inulit naman ni Iqbal ang “indispensability of a separate inquiry by an independent body to bolster confidence in the findings.”
“The Parties express their deepest appreciation to and continuing confidence in President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. for his full support to the Bangsamoro peace process and his commitment to fulfill the implementation of the peace agreements,” ayon sa kalatas.
“The Parties, along with the entire peace mechanisms, re-affirm their commitment to the continued implementation of the CAB and the achievement of just and lasting peace in the Bangsamoro and in the entire country,” dagdag na pahayag sa kalatas. Kris Jose
