2. The Greater Nepal Nationalist Front strongly supports and respects the one-China policy adopted by Nepal as it respects China’s geographical integrity and unity and its continuation in the interest of both countries.
3. Greater Nepal Nationalist Front, We, the Nepali people, object the Prime Minister Level agreement between China and India point no 28 and demand the Chinese Government to immediately correct the point 28 of the 2015 may 15 joint agreement between China and India regarding Lipulek. We should like to remind that cross-border trade from Lipulek Bhanjyang without Nepal permission is intolerable to Nepali people.
4. The Greater Nepal Nationalist Front wants to emphasize that China’s strong presence and effective role in South Asia is essential for the security and stability of the region. Nepal should not leave any excuse to crush foreign intervention who wants to use Nepal’s land for giving security Challenge on the National integrity of China, especially of Indo-Western Anti-China attempts. In this context, Article 5 of the Treaty of Betrawoti on 5 October 1972 states that,’if Nepal be ever invaded by a foreign power, China would not fail to help her.’ It is necessary to strengthen long lasting security cooperation between Nepal and China and long term defense Treaty should be signed immediately.
