The External Affairs Ministry said that ‘it has not received any formal communique with regard to the US intentions to move a procedural resolution at the forthcoming Geneva sessions against Sri Lanka.”

External Affairs Ministry Secretary K. Amunugama told state owned Sunday Observer newspaper that the government “will stand its ground if there is a move for a procedural resolution by the US and its allies at the forthcoming sessions in Geneva next month.

He said, "We believe we have achieved a substantial amount of progress within a short period of time."

He said the Sri Lankan team is aware of the challenges posed by countries with different views on Sri Lanka's situation but it was prepared to shoot down any misconceptions with facts and figures.

Typical Govt servant attitude....wait for an invitation to act on anything and by the time you decide to do something it will be too late.

You govt types are always the last to find out when something is going on. And by the time you do its usually too late. Time to be pro-active and start doing your job instead of passing the buck.

After Hon. Luxman Kadirgamar, there is no well respected statesmen in this country who can represent our motherland.

This government has secured the world record for impeaching a chief justice in the shortest possible time. With that incidence you can definitely defend your position that govt works at electric speed.
