Srilanka rejects Erick Solheim’s request


The Sri Lankan government had rejected the request made by Norway’s International Development Minister Erick Solheim to conduct investigations against the malpractices which are stated, to have occurred during the Presidential election. The government had pointed out the statement given by Erick Solheim is false other than truth.

Government had stated, Solheim does not have any rights to interfere in the internal affairs of Sri Lanka. Information states, such statement also was pointed out by Solheim in the greeting message sent to President Mahinda Rajapakse towards his victory at the Presidential election. Solheim had further requested in his message to grant a settlement to the Tamil peoples crisis. But government had stated that his requests cannot be accepted and it is not essential for foreign diplomats to interfere in the internal affairs of Sri Lanka
