“We are for the implementation of this agreement, even if it means tomorrow that when those who are fighting us come in and they are to be given positions in the government and you are told to get up from your chair and it is given to those who have been fighting us, for the sake of our country you will have to get up and allow somebody to come in…What we don’t accept from them it is this force.
