During a meeting with the ambassadors of European Union (EU) nations at her residence at Mandikhatar on Monday morning, Koirala said environment for national consensus will be created only after the Maoists dismantle the paramilitary structure of Young Communist League (YCL), return seized property and give up running “parallel government”.

She said the UCPN (Maoist) should come with a concrete proposal on integration of its combatants. “The government is in favour to conclude the ongoing peace process and constitution making by taking all parties into confidence,” she said.
On the occasion, the envoys urged the government to be flexible on Maoists and take initiative to form a new national government with the participation of the Maoists as well.
Similarly, the envoys urged to reach consensus on the extension of CA tenure as there is no possibility of promulgation of new constitution within the salted date of May 28.
US ambassador to Nepal and the Australian Ambassador to Nepal were also present in the meeting.
After the withdrawal of the Maoist nationwide general strike, ambassadors from different countries have started consultations with the government and major political parties in a bid to press them to forge a national consensus.
