What #Netanyahu said in 2001 was not just words: Anyone fighting in the international arena for public opinion must argue the justice of his cause. Whether you are right or you are wrong you must argue the #Justice of your cause. https://t.co/aDhynr1qnb

3/„Stopping land grabbing in the North&East is an immediate need.Reviewing the numbers of the Military &the articulation of the need to keep a Military in such large numbers are responsibilities of the government.We cannot get relief/answers to these questions if we boycott.“

[CV Wigneswaran @CWigneswaran]

2/Ekiya under any interpretation implies unitary. Unless we have an eksath constitution giving equal rights to all communities we just cannot accept this so called ekiya draft constitution. #SriLankaConstitution

[CV Wigneswaran @CWigneswaran]

1/My response to a journalist:„The draft given to me is not a federal constitution, but a unitary constitution with a seemingly powerless “Second Chamber” added (Art. 111).We could find no actual powers accorded to this Second Chamber.“ #TamilSolution https://t.co/juuPUWywkp

[CV Wigneswaran @CWigneswaran]

#SriLanka’s financial woes today are the legacy of its #war:a needless conflict to deny #Tamils their right of #selfdetermination. Its #EconomicCrisis is also the cost of the ongoing military occupation over Tamil territory – the North&East of Sri Lanka. https://t.co/3PgNSY1pOq

[CV Wigneswaran @CWigneswaran]

Hon' Minister seems to be unaware of the true position of North Eastern Tamils in SriLanka. The Indo SriLanka Accord of 1987 has recognized that the North&East are places of historical habitation of the #Tamil speaking. They are majority in their areas.1/3

[CV Wigneswaran @CWigneswaran]

&destroy the cultural identity of Tamils.WE had a number of pogroms killing Tamils&drove them from their residencies long before the armed conflict.Hon' Minister must cease looking upon our problems as a mere human rights'problem.The North Eastern Tamils are a Sovereign Nation. W

[CV Wigneswaran @CWigneswaran]

When the Britishers unified the Country for admin purposes in 1833 there was a separate JaffnaKingdom. In terms of Intl. Covenants Tamils are a Nation and not mere minorities. The conflict continues as the State continues to grab lands of Tamils, attack Tamilspeaking people

[LankaFiles @lankafiles]

#Tamils in #SriLanka's northern #Jaffna peninsula push back attempts by the state to forcibly occupy private land for the expansion of a navy camp.

[Tamil Diaspora Alliance @tamil_alliance]

@tariqahmadbt @TNAmediaoffice Sri Lanka is certainly not post conflict! Till date, reconciliation and accountability processes have failed. The Tamil people are losing trust in this international system. Other avenues to progress forward need to be explored. Not a minority! @US_SCA
