A resolution on Sri Lanka which was adopted by the UN Human Rights Council in September, has been presented to the UN General Assembly (UNGA).
Ambassador Federico Villegas, President of the Human Rights Council, presented the resolution on Sri Lanka at the 77th session of the General Assembly in New York.
The resolution on Sri Lanka was among resolutions adopted by the Human Rights Council at its fifty-first session, held from 12 September to 7 October 2022, presented to the UNGA.
The resolution ‘Promoting reconciliation, accountability and human rights in Sri Lanka’ was adopted by a recorded vote of 20 to 7, with 20 abstentions.
The United Nations will be forced to bust over USD 6 million to implement the resolution on Sri Lanka.
Villegas told the UNGA that over recent years, the Human Rights Council has been facing organizational challenges resulting from the growing gap between its ever increasing volume of work and the resources allocated to the departments and offices that support it.
He said that in its fifty-first session, the Council adopted decision 51/101 entitled “Appropriate support for the Human Rights Council”, which requests the Secretary-General to provide the Human Rights Council with the support necessary to be able to meet no less than 14 weeks to fulfill its annual programme of work.

DM BN says "The UN will be forced to bust" . How could this country be ever redeemed with this attitude of Sinhala Majoritarian Racist double standards. Anyway according to Namal baby Ranil too now is Anti-Human Rights Activist. So why not Wijewardana Group.

@cheers yes why worry about human rights. But don't forget the Chinese chickens have come home to roost and the money u need from the west is going to come attached with these riders. Just because u and ur ministers have got used to begging for the past few decades doesn't mean that the money is earned.

Slowly the noose is tightening. Every move we make is checkmated by the Demilo diaspora. It is time we put our 330000 Rana viras costing us USD 1.83 billion per annum to good use and send them overseas to round up and eliminate our external enemies same as we did to our internal enemies
