(Lanka-e-News, June 29, 2010, 9.10AM) UNP M P Gayantha Karunatileke addressing a Press briefing yesterday (28) at the UNP media unit said, the UNP is opposed to the appointment of a Committee to investigate and report on SL which is a sovereign State .
Our view is that SL being an independent sovereign State, it cannot be interfered with internationally. The appointment of the Committee by the UN to SL to conduct investigations is not because of our Heroic Forces or the opposition's faults, it is because of the Govt.'s own myopic actions, stupidity and weaknesses, UNP spokesman Gayantha pointed out.
While some Ministers of the Govt. claim that this Committee has been appointed by the UN Gen. secretary to seek their advice, other Ministers of the Govt. state that no representative of this Committee will be permitted to enter this country.
If the Govt. has appointed the independent Commissions under the 17th amendment to the constitution, and had enforced the democratic and human rights of the people, promoted peace and freedom among them, SL cannot be interfered with by the foreign countries as what is happening now, Gayantha noted.
