LTTE delegation in Berlin
In the third leg of the European tour Mr. Tamilselvan, Head of the LTTE Political Wing and his team met with the Secretary of State Erich STATHER, German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development and Kerstin Muller, Deputy Secretary of the Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, today the 5th February 2004.
The discussions focused on the progress of the peace process in Sri Lanka. Mr. Tamilselvan explained in detail the urgent humanitarian crisis caused by the non-implementation of measures to address the people's needs even though two years have lapsed since signing the CFA. Commenting further the Head of the Political Wing said that waiting for the resolution of the conflict between the executive President and the Prime minister could not go on indefinitely while urgent humanitarian needs are to be addressed. He therefore solicited the assistance of the international community to meaningfully intervene to address at least temporarily the humanitarian problems.
