UN Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs Jeffrey Feltman expressed deep concern about the current developments that are adversely affecting Nepal's humanitarian situation, economic performance and reconstruction efforts.
Mr. Feltman made his call for dialogue as he concluded a two-day visit to Nepal aiming to encourage maximum flexibility to resolve the current political situation there.
He met with a number of the country's political and civil society leaders, including President Bidya Devi Bandari and Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli.
Commending Nepalis on their resolve to address these issues with a spirit of flexibility and compromise, he encouraged political leaders to overcome urgently current differences on constitutional arrangements through inclusive dialogue and parliamentary process.
He also underscored the importance of rebuilding trust amongst different groups, including through agreement on the modalities of the process to delineate internal borders.
Mr. Feltman expressed the sincere hope and conviction that an understanding on these immediate matters will allow all stakeholders in Nepal to meet their aspirations of economic development, accountability and the full implementation of constitutional provisions.
The UN fully supports this Nepali process, he concluded.
