Aquino says he remains optimistic about peace talks with MILF - Home » Other Sections » Breaking News: "President Benigno Aquino III remains optimistic about the peace negotiations between the government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).
"It is only normal in negotiations for the parties involved to agree and disagree during discussions and debate on proposals," Aquino said in an interview over Radio Mindanao Network that was aired today.
The President assured that whatever agreement reached during the talks would be made public and a final peace accord would be subject to a plebiscite.
The government would not be dictating or forcing anyone to uphold or reject whatever agreement reached by the GPH and MILF panels, he added.
On the issue of Commander Ameril Umbra Kato, who took about 300 followers with him as he broke away from the MILF and formed his own group Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF), the President is banking on the MILF's annoucement that they would resolve the issue."
