fight" has been suppressed. A fight can be suppressed but can the hostility suppress at the time the Negotiations begin? E i feel is not the right answer because at the time negotiation begin, the other countries know that they would have to do keep performing actions to ensure that the Negotiations close successfully.
Please tell us the right answer

If the statements above are true, and if negotiations between the two sides do
begin soon, at the time those negotiations begin each of the following must also be true EXCEPT:
(A) The cease-fire has not been violated by either of the two sides.
(B) International troops enforcing the cease-fire have demonstrated that they can
counter aggression from either of the two sides.
(C) A major incentive for the two sides to resume hostilities has been suppressed.
(D) Other countries have exerted pressure on the two sides to the dispute.
(E) The negotiations� reaching an agreement depends in part on the actions of
other countries.
Hi, my IMO is (E) because:
(B) must be true from the argument! => (C) equally must be true
(D) must be true from the argument!
(A) must be true, otherwise (B), (C) and (D) are false!
What do you think?
Cheers!
