Erik Solheim discusses Vanni civilians plight with Tamil Eelam government

Erik Solheim, the Norwegian minister for international development and the topmost representative of the Norwegian facilitator discussed Wednesday evenng the plight of the civilians in Vanni with B. Nadesan, the head of the political wing of the Liberation Tigers of Tamileelam (LTTE). Revealing the details of the phone conversation that lasted for 30 minutes, S. Puleedevan, the director of LTTE’s Peace Secretariat told TamilNet that Mr. Solheim conveyed the recent developments in the International arena regarding the Tamil conflict, especially with regards to the latest briefings at the UN Security Council.

Solheim was briefed on the grave humanitarian catastrophe caused by the military aggression of the Sri Lankan armed forces, Puleedevan said.

While the Norwegian minister conveyed the concerns of the International Community, LTTE’s political head explained in detail how the Sri Lanka was waging a genocidal war on Tamil civilians, Mr. Puleedevan told TamilNet Thursday morning.

“Our political head categorically told Mr. Solheim that a serious responsibility rests on the International Community to put an immediate stop to the attacks on the Tamil civilians,” he added.

“Mr. Nadesan pointed out that around 100 Tamil civilians, including children, pregnant mothers, and elderly are being killed or maimed every day inside a narrow strip of coastal land by the Sri Lankan armed forces. This is a grave violation of all norms of humanitarian law and the conventions of warfare.”

LTTE’s Political Head reiterated the Tiger position on immediate ceasefire and resumption of negotiations to achieve a lasting solution to the conflict.

“The topmost priority now is an immediate ceasefire to put a stop to the massacre being carried out by the Sri Lankan forces,” Nadesan has told Solheim.

“The Tamil people do not wish to be subjugated to the genocidal Sri Lankan state. The International Community should come forward to perceive the aspirations of the Tamil nation in the context of the free will of the Tamil people themselves, and not under the conditions where they are subjected to the choice of life or death by the Sri Lankan state,” Mr. Nadesan has told Solheim, according to Puleedevan.

    Well If you can have a shit lanka government, then we too can have a government.

    Aerial konsberg,

    Solheim is not a loser. It is YOU the loser..

  6. Neil Armstrong says:

    Such discussions will accelerate in the next few months as Tamil Eelam declares independence and Tamil Eelam ambassadors are welcomed all over the world.

    Well done.

    Simple, who is hodling the innocent Tamil civilians? If the LTTE is so concerned about Tamil people and consider them the custodian of Tamil people why can’t they release these innocent people. I don’t think one has to be a rocket scientist to understand and realise the perils of supporting a group of terrorists. Irrespective of their ethnicity, no nation should support a terrorist outfit. I wonder what Mr Solheim would say if they were subjected to this menance of terrorism.

    They both value ZERO

  15. Gothandaraman says:

    Without Tamils , there are no LTTE and without LTTE ,there are no Tamils.

  16. Ides says:

    Solheim has been the “saviour” f the Tamil terrorists for so long that it must distress him to see his friend and ally Prabhakaran where he is today inspite of all Solheim’s efforts. It is ironic that Nadesan should speak of the “free will” of the Tamils when the LTTE are holding them by force. The life and death situation of the civilians is also due to the LTTE holding them forcibly and killing them if they try to escape.
