克钦独立组织谴责缅军企图威逼停火 2015-10-03 消息来源:繁霜尽是心头血
克钦独立组织——最强大的民族武装之一——谴责缅军发动攻势施压该组织与缅甸政府签署全国停火协议。

昨日克钦独立军副总参谋长衮莫将军接受了缅甸时报的采访,证实该组织将抵制谈判停火协议近两年的政府谈判代表和民族武装组织领导们明日在仰光举行的会议。
19个民族武装组织的领导人本周在清迈举行峰会,会上只有7个组织宣布准备签署“全国停火协议”。正在推进和平进程的缅甸和平中心希望明日会议将确定证实签约的日期,可能会定在10月15日。
衮莫将军说,克钦独立组织不准备签署全国停火协议。克钦独立组织是在清迈峰会上宣布不签约的10个组织之一,其中还有3个组织已经被政府排除在外。
“政府不包容所有组织签约,在目前局势下我方不想签署全国停火协议。如果他们今天允许全包容,我们就可以马上签署。如果不是这样,我们还将等待。”这位克钦将军说。
他谴责政府和缅军因某些民族武装组织抵制签署停火而发动攻势。
“我认为缅军司令们无意停战。如果他们想停战,战斗立即就会停止。”他说。
分析家说,7个准备签约的组织(包括其中最大的克伦民族联盟)目前还在战斗,所谓全国停火名不副实。那些被政府排斥的组织及其大部分拒绝签约的盟友正在从克钦邦北部当掸邦东部的广袤土地上置身于此起彼伏的冲突中。
政府的拥趸们为这种局部性协议辩护,称其他组织可能会以后加入,而且开启了通向政治协商关键阶段的正式进程。
身为被政府排斥的三支盟军中的一员,德昂民族解放军说北掸邦战事持续。德昂民族解放军说自己希望停火,而且政府也一直告知愿意进行双边谈判。
然而,德昂民族解放军主席U Mai Aike Bone 9月30日告知缅甸时报政府至今没有通知开始谈判。
“我方已经组建了谈判小组,但是政府却没有了音讯。”他说,又指出,德昂民族解放军并未对签署双边协议或全国停火协议做出保证。
尽管在清迈开会的民族领导人没有解决他们之间在签署停火协议上的分歧,但他们都一致同意由一个民族组织委员会起草的走向下一个政治协商阶段的“框架”议案。
他们说还同意解散6月份成立取代NCCT的高级代表团,NCCT曾在3月30日同意了一份停火协议草案。
解散高级代表团可能会受到政府首席谈判代表吴昂民的欢迎。高级代表团的成立与要求修改停火协议文本和要求协议“全包容”如影随形。
NCCT成员将在明日代表愿意签约的民族组织与政府商定日期和组成联合委员会,继续和平进程。
尽管努力维护团结,民族组织之间的深深裂痕还是在本周清迈峰会上浮现出来。
钦民族阵线总书记兼已解散的高级代表团成员Pu Cing Zung说,签署停火协议后,这7个愿意签约的组织将会与那10个拒绝签约的组织会谈。
“我们有必要讨论这两类组织如何继续并肩走向和平进程的未来。将会开很多次会议,但还说不出何时开会。”他说。
KIO accuses Tatmadaw of trying to force a ceasefire
By Ye Mon | Friday, 02 October 2015
The Kachin Independence Organisation (KIO), one of the most powerful ethnic armed groups, has accused the Tatmadaw of stepping up its offensives to put pressure on the group to join a proposed nationwide ceasefire agreement with the government.
But in an interview yesterday with The Myanmar Times, General Gun Maw, the vice chief of staff of the group’s armed wing, the Kachin Independence Army, confirmed that the group would boycott a meeting to be held in Yangon tomorrow between the government negotiators and leaders of armed ethnic groups who have been negotiating the ceasefire pact for nearly two years.
At a summit of leaders of 19 armed ethnic groups in Chiang Mai this week, only seven declared they were ready to sign the “nationwide ceasefire agreement”. The Myanmar Peace Center, which is facilitating the peace process, hopes that tomorrow’s meeting will fix a date for a formal signing, possibly on October 15.
Gen Gun Maw said the KIO was not ready to sign the NCA. It was among the10 groups in Chiang Mai that declared they would not sign, although three of those groups had been excluded by the government itself.
“We don’t want to sign the NCA in the current situation because the government does not allow all groups to be included in the signing. If they are allowed today, we would sign immediately. If not we will still wait for that,” the Kachin general said.
He accused the government and the Tatmadaw of launching offensive sagainst some ethnic groups because of their resistance to signing the ceasefire pact.
“I think the commanders have no intention to stop the fighting. If they did, fighting would not be happening today,” he said.
Analysts say a so-called nationwide ceasefire rings hollow as none of the seven groups ready to sign the accord, including the Karen National Union, the largest force among them, are currently involved in ongoing fighting. Those shut out by the government, and most of their allies who are refusing to sign, are in the areas of active conflict across large swathes of territory in the north in Kachin State and to the east in Shan State.
Defending the partial agreement, aides to the government argue that other groups may join later and that it sets in motion a formal process leading to the next critical stage of political dialogue.
The Ta’ang National Liberation Army (TNLA), one of the three allied forces excluded by the government, said fighting was continuing in northern Shan State. The TNLA says it wants a ceasefire and has been told by the government that it is willing to enter into bilateral talks.
However, TNLA chair U Mai Aike Bone told The Myanmar Times on September 30 that the government has not yet communicated an actual offer to start peace talks with the group.
“We already formed the team to hold bilateral talks. But the government has not responded to that,” he said, noting that the TNLA had not committed itself to signing either a bilateral agreement or the NCA.
Although the ethnic leaders meeting in Chiang Mai could not resolve their differences over signing the ceasefire pact, they did jointly endorse the “framework” proposals drawn up by a committee of ethnic groups that is to lead to the next stage of political dialogue with the government.
They said they also agreed to dissolve the Senior Delegation of negotiators set up in June to replace the Nationwide Ceasefire Coordination Team (NCCT) that had agreed a draft text of the ceasefire with the government on March 30.
Dissolution of the senior delegation is likely to be welcomed by the government’s chief negotiator, U Aung Min. Its establishment was accompanied by a more hard-line approach in demanding amendments to the ceasefire text and calling for the pact to be “all-inclusive”.
The ethnic groups willing to sign will be represented tomorrow by members of the NCCT, who will work out a date and to form a joint committee with the government to continue the peace process.
Deep divisions among the various ethnic groups surfaced at the Chiang Mai summit this week despite efforts to preserve a degree of unity.
Pu Cing Zung, general secretary of the Chin National Front and a member of the disbanded Senior Delegation, said the group of seven willing to sign the NCA would meet the 10 groups outside the pact after the ceasefire signing.
“We need to discuss how the two groups will go on together for the future peace process. Many meetings will come, but I can’t say when yet,” he said.
