Sri Lanka: LTTE Political Head to meet SLMM Head Thursday

Wednesday, 07 November 2007

A meeting has been scheduled between the Head of Mission of the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) Major General Lars Johan Solvberg and the Liberation Tigers of Tamileelam (LTTE) new Political Head P. Nadesan, in Ki'ilinochchi on Thursday, according to informed sources in Vanni. The meeting comes in the wake of targeted air attack that claimed the life of Liberation Tigers Political Head S.P. Thamilchelvan who was the Chief Negotiator of the Norwegian facilitated peace process.

All attention is focused on Vanni as LTTE's leader Velupillai Pirapharan would be making his annual policy speech on the Heroes Day on 27 November.

The LTTE leader, last year, in his policy speech said that the "dual war and peace approach," was "fundamentally flawed."

"It is not possible to find a resolution by marginalizing and destroying the freedom movement with which talks must be held to find the resolution. This is political absurdity on the part of the Sinhala leaders," the LTTE leader had said in his policy speech last year.
