Giving evidence to the Reconciliation Commission,the former diplomat and Peace Secretariate boss-Bernard Gunatilake, said that the aim of the
UNP for the peace agreement and talks with
LTTE was to use the talks to create split in the movement rather than to really achieve peace or to solve the ethnic problem.
He went on to say that UNP succeded in creating split using Karuna.
Futher,after the Elephant Pass defeat and sbusequent debacle in the attempt to recapture EP followded by the Katunayake attack,the government accpted that,militarily, both parties were at equal strength.
We Tamils have been saying all along, the motives of the sinhala nazis were not achieve real peace but to undermine the Tamils struggle by using the traitors.
This has been vindicated by the sinhala nazis themselves.
