UN Chief Ban Ki-moon had met with Sri Lanka's Ambassador to the UN Dr. Palitha Kohona on Tuesday afternoon and asked the Sri Lanka to seriously consider the recommendation of the expert report, the UN spokesman said.

The Inner City Press said quoting Ban's spokesman Martin Nesirky that “the Secretary General did meet Tuesday afternoon with the Permanent Representative of Sri Lanka. In that meeting the Secretary General reiterated two points.”

“First, that... it would be good for Sri Lanka to seriously consider the recommendations of the Report... particularly with regard for the need for an accountability process.”

We seem to be doing everything except addressing the issues in that report. Why don't we face up to it and prove it is wrong instead of childishly criticizing it ?

Why do we have to prove it is wrong? Let them who wrote and the UNSG prove their accusations first. We didn't ask for the report, and let them do what they like with it. Please, president, throw it in the dust bin.

Only reply when BM issues a report on the war on Iraq and Libya, otherwise best ignore the report as it has no legal standing.

BKM is trying to please his masters to win another term in office. If he fails, the poor chap will be out of a lucrative job, come November.
