Sri Lanka Military Leaders to be`Banned` from Europe

2009-11-06 | 12.50 PM

According to reliable sources from the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the European Union is taking steps to impose travel ban on Sri Lankan military leaders and their immediate families. This is one step closer to preparing a draft resolution in the UN Security Council that would prevent Sri Lankan military leaders and their families crossing any international frontier.

It is understood such a move in the UN would have full backing from the US. The US State department recently released a congressioinally
mandated report on Sri Lanka that was highly critical of the Sri Lankan army for carrying out shelling in the no-fire zone set up by the Sri Lankan government. It was alleged that more than 20,000 innocent civilians died in the final phase of the war againt the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). The LTTE waged a war for more than three decades to create a separate State for the Tamils who claim that they are being discriminated by the Sinhalese majority. The report calls for both parties to the conflict to be investigated for war crimes.

Malcolm Ranjith and others had a free trip to Brussels and London last week, to beg for GSP. What did they actually say and do there to bring this ban on? :))

If this is true it would be better than doing anything on the GSP+ because this will only impact on the actual war criminals and their families where as the impact of GSP+ is mainly on the working poor and that is not fair.

Bellanwila thero Rev. Malcolm Ranjith and others had a free trip to Brussels and London last week, to beg for GSP.

Malcolm Ranjith is more a politician than a Bishop, he should disrobe and go into politics if he loves it so much. One person could destroy the respect Christianity enjoys from all communities.

I agree. Malcolm Ranjith is more a politician than a Bishop Unfortunately even Oswald Gomis and Rayappu Joseph have had to dance to the tune of the powers that be:((
