At least 25 representatives from both the government and NDF peace panels attended the meeting held at the state dining room in the Palace.
"Basically they were saying thank you for releasing the consultants," presidential spokesperson Ernesto Abella said.
He said the NDF was "very enthusiastic about the current progress of the peace talks" and said that the Left hoped "there would be no cancellation of the talks."
