The CPP issued this statement in reaction to the statements issued earlier by Malacañang claiming that the New People's Army (NPA) is not interested in peace negotiations and has supposedly lost all ideology and "resorted to banditry".
Reaksyon ito ng PKP sa naunang pahayag ng Malacañang na nagsasabing hindi interesado ang Bagong Hukbong Bayan (BHB) sa usapang pangkapayapaan at nawala na diumano ang ideolohiya at "natulak na sa panunulisan".
