Unity is strength. If we, the members of the ETCR who are now part of the population, integrate with the community, we will become a very united group. We will work together and strengthen ourselves repeatedly. We need to unite to claim our rights and continue with the community’s purpose: to move forward and keep fighting for the peace agreement to be fulfilled and to prevent more massacres. We must come together to eliminate the stigmatization towards those of us who signed the peace and those who live in this area. If we unite with the community, they will see the other side of the coin. In this ETCR, the idea that only reintegrated individuals could live here has been removed; now, signatories and civilians live here. We have already established families, and our families from outside come to visit us, share with us, and even live in the area.
