"They have suggested that we should discuss alternatives. However, we do not want to form a government that simply swaps roles, with NC as an alternative to UML and UML as an alternative to NC, serving the interest of middlemen. This is our firm stance," Pun said.
According to Pun, the NC leaders said UML has been threatening them, claiming that the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has already been implemented, and now the communists should join hands. He added that the NC leaders are not ready to tolerate the tantrums of UML anymore as new scandals involving UML and Oli surface every week. “They suggest discussing alternatives,” he added.
