The government is expected to discuss the decision taken by the UN Peacekeeping Department to ban the deployment of non-essential Sri Lankan Army troops in UN peacekeeping missions.
Issuing a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the Sri Lankan delegation attending the 74th General Assembly Session is scheduled to discuss this matter with the Under-Secretary-General of the UN Department of Peace Operations today.
“Following the statement of the Deputy Spokesman for the UN Secretary-General yesterday that the UN Department of Peace Operations has decided to repatriate a Sri Lankan Army unit and individual officers currently serving with UN Peacekeeping due to concerns on the appointment of Lt. Gen. Shavendra Silva as the Commander of the Sri Lanka Army, the Government of Sri Lanka is in discussion on this issue with the UN Secretary,” the statement said.
