Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa today said he hoped the British Government will maintain the proscription on the LTTE.

In a tweet, Mr. Rajapaksa said Sri Lanka defeated the LTTE and put a stop to its brutal terrorist activities.

“But, remnants of LTTE terrorism remain very active around the world and pose a great threat to the national security of any country,” he said.

Because of the security risk will keep Rajapaksa family in power for ever.

Just a quick reminder. UK will not like other nation to interfere with their internal matters.

At the moment UK has more pressing issues than appeasing the Tamils there! Come election time -it will be a different story, as the Tamil block vote will be difficult to resist.

Change the bench of courts, and go for retrial. This what we do in Sri Lanka.

You can only hope, you bugger, but you can not impose. Just keep that in mind.

Don't involve in other countries internal affairs. Same thing the Gov said in the UN Council. Karma.

Not for the R's, but security seems a very important aspect. Last year was a testament to that at a significant cost of lives to all Lankans. LTTE is a menace, I sincerely wish they remain as it is, not raise their ugly, selfish

Yes Sir you expect them adhere to your request but when they want to listen to them you say they interfering in our internal affairs. This is a funny world.

This cheat said 20A is important to safeguard the unitary state of the country. Using the dead LTTE to hang on to power until the end of time. Divide

Nick, you are right. No one cares. We have more important isues: Covid 19 and Brexit

Does this joker not understand that one cannot order people to be murdered in broad daylight and not expect any retribution?
