Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, Sri Lanka's Secretary of Defence
It
comes as no surprise that you are compelled to undertake this task. In
fact, half of the lobbyists of your government are now refusing to
defend you and your brothers. The other half, like Prof G. L. Peiris,
Rahul Hakeem and other members of his community; a few Tamils like
Douglas Devananda, Anandasangari, and Sitharthan are reluctant now to
defend you all. One of your good friends Mohan Peiris who successfully
lobbied North Korea during the war, is of course busy with his new
portfolio!(PARIS) - In recent days, I learnt that you, Defence
Secretary - Gotabaya Rajapaksa, brother of President Mahinda Rajapaksa
met some dignitaries. This was to prevent any resolution coming against
Sri Lanka in the forthcoming 25th session of the UN Human Rights Council
- HRC in Geneva. Among the diaspora a few are not happy about your new
role but I am extremely happy and welcome you.
