The NDFP has always made it clear since 2005 that it is willing to have a truce and alliance with the Manila government anytime on the basis of a general declaration of common intent to realise full national independence, democracy, economic development through national industrialization and genuine land reform and social justice.
Palaging nililinaw ng NDFP noon pa mang 2005 na nais nitong magkaroon ng tigil-putukan at alyansa sa gubyerno ng Maynila anumang oras batay sa isang pangkalahatang deklarasyon ng komun na layunin upang makamit ang ganap na pambansang kalayaan, demokrasya, pag-unlad ng ekonomya sa pamamagitan ng pambansang industriyalisasyon at tunay na reporma sa lupa at hustisyang panlipunan.
