Learn from us, LTTE tells U.S., Iraq

(2003)

Hakone (Japan) March 21. The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) today said the United States and Iraq should learn from its example of making peace with the Sri Lankan Government and urged the United Nations to prevail upon the two warring parties to restore normality.

``It is regrettable that the U.S. attacked Iraq without proper endorsement of the U.N. though we are also against the dictatorship of the Iraqi leader, Saddam Hussein, and his not respecting the U.N. resolution,'' the LTTE's chief negotiator, Anton Balasingham, said.

``The LTTE is known for violence but we are renouncing it and pursuing the path of peace. Our example should be followed by other countries,'' he said at the conclusion of the sixth round of peace talks between the Sri Lankan Government and the Tigers here. ``Our effort to achieve peace is an example to the world that the solution to any long-standing problem can be achieved through negotiations,'' he added.

Endorsing Mr. Balasingham's views, the Sri Lankan Government's chief negotiator, G.L. Peiris, said both the Government and the LTTE are determined to overcome the challenges. Prof. Peiris appealed to the U.S. and Iraq to learn from the example of the Sri Lankan Government-LTTE way of resolving the problems through negotiations.

Mr. Balasingham and Prof. Peiris were talking to the media at a joint news conference after the conclusion of sixth round of peace negotiations. �#8221; UNI
