What is India's stand on the resolution against Sri Lanka..

Vote against or support?


With kind of debates that this resolution has prompted and the way they are turning public opinion on the issue in India and globally, India's actual vote will be of little consequence.

For that matter, the status of resolution being passed or not passed doesn't really matter any more.

It is the public opinion that matters. And it is turning against the statusquo in Sri Lanka.

In the end, what matters for SL is the public opinion in India, US and EU, and in that order.

Public opinion shapes firm action points in forign policy. In fact, states craft favuorable domestic and external public opinion before they initiate major plans to effect change in statusquo.

If a favourable public opinion already exists, it is all the more of a reason to change the statusquo.

This is why nobody really came for LTTE's or Gaddafi's rescue when they were cornered and this is why allies of Syrian regime are deserting it now. It took them years to reach to those desperate situation. There was hardly any public opinion in favour of them globally when they were under attack.

So, the passing or not passing of resolution doesn't really matter anymore, SL has already lost it strategically.

Now we are looking at post resolution scenario.

this is interesting argument, so we should make our policy decisions based on the public opinion in the west and in the south india??

my question is, according maniders superior wisdom does our local public opinion count for any thing in this...as far as i know, the latest poll done by the anti lankan NGO Center for policy alternatives have found out that 9 out of 10 acknowledge MR!

i dont think we have lost anything as a matter of fact this resolution is given a platform for many to highlight the hypocrisy of west wehn it comes to matters like this...hardly any ordinary citizen in the west cares about what is happening in sri lanka..

Maninda my friend, you know nothing about the last stages of the war against LTTE. SL government had tremendous pressure from USA & EU countries to stop the war in the last stages when the terrorist were cornered.
Even USA was prepared to send a ship to (surrender)rescue the LTTE leaders. UK sent the David Miliband and french sent their Foreign minister too, But what mattered was the opinion and backing of the 20m of Sri Lankan people to defeat those foreign elements.
The way they killed Gaddafi was filmed too but HR organisations are' silent about it which means such organisations are funded by the LTTE money to hear their voice.
The bottom line is the opinion of the Sri Lankan majority is what mattes and depends on what they want. If they are willing to face hard challengers economically and live free from fear of terror they can ask India,EU or USA to go and fly a kite.
If the majority of the country wants the regime changed then the foreign elements have chance to stick their nose in

This is what LTTE - Tamils and SL - NGOs expect of the resolution is passed.

The CPA document is very clear. It explains the intention of the US proposed resolution and the aftermath of its adoption.
But sri lanka rejects the resolution because
a) demilitarisation, especially of tamil areas is a threat to the Military Regime which suppresses civil liberties so that the Rajapakse Regime can strengthen itself and keep all citizens, not only tamils, under subjugation so that the unopposed powerful executive presidency can go on and on, and,
b) War Crimes which have been publicised will be investigated by due process of application of international law,
with exposure of those responsible,
c) Exposure of the so called development canard when the only development is the wastage of national resources on megalomaniac ventures which are all white elephants ,
d) the idle army which has been praised & almost deified, and is now living on peoples wealth,will turn on the corrupt politicians if it is disbanded, as all countries did, after WW2,
e) Enforcement of Human Rights and Rule of Law will deprive the regime of its totalitarian character and lead to a real peoples government with the dumping of the present lot of politicians and the president who are only developing themselves.
All the sanctimonious hypocrisy is to prevent all above happening and , thus prevent exposure of the regime and its sycophants
