Ten different countries including the US and the UK have jointly welcomed the endorsement of the Investigation of Disappeared Persons, Truth and Reconciliation Commission Act 2071 (Amendment) Bill passed with a consensus by both houses of the Federal Parliament of Nepal.
The Switzerland, Australia, Norway, Japan, Finland, EU, Germany and France join the two countries in welcoming the move and pledge to explore possible mechanisms for support to the Government of Nepal for the benefit of the victims, as the Government outlines a path forward.
"The continued participation of the victims in decision-making processes will aid the effective implementation of the TRC Act. We look forward to hearing from the Government of Nepal about specific needs to support effective delivery by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the Commission on the Investigation of Enforced Disappeared Persons", reads the joint statement released here today.
"Now is the time for all stakeholders to band together in support of bringing this segment of Nepal’s history to a successful conclusion."
