U.S. Ambassador Alaina B. Teplitz informed Foreign Relations Minister Dinesh Gunawardane that she would convey to Washington Sri Lanka’s concerns regarding travel restrictions on Army Commander Lt. Gen. Shavendra Silva.

An embassy spokesman told Daily Mirror the ambassador and the Foreign Minister had a productive meeting.

The U.S Policy on SL...barring Trump ......has been very bad. U.S made every effort to rescue the LTTE Leadership in 2009. MR stood firm....Great.
