UN closely watching situation in Sri Lanka
The UN is closely watching the situation in Sri Lanka, where President Mahinda Rajapaksa has declared an end to military operation against the LTTE, while focusing on assisting the ten of thousands of civilians who have been displaced by the conflict, a top United Nations official said today.
When this year dawned, the Sri Lankan government was beleaguered by Western nations at the United Nations Human Rights Commission over alleged 'War Crimes' committed by the Sri Lankan armed forces.
