February 27, 2014
President Mahinda Rajapaksa and Indian Premier Manmohan Singh are likely to hold talks on the sidelines of an Asian economic summit next week, an Indian newspaper reported.
Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh
Singh will meet Rajapaksa on the sidelines of the BIMSTEC (Bay of Bengal
Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation)
summit in Myanmar next week, the Business standard said.
The meeting between the two will take place even as Sri Lanka faces a
third resolution that may call for an international inquiry into war crimes at the UN Human Rights Council’s 25th Session which also opens on March 3.
India has voted in favour of two US backed resolutions against Sri Lanka at the Council in 2012 and 2013.
The Business Standard said that asked about India’s approach, Foreign
Secretary Sujatha singh said it is a “delicate issue” and depends on
what the text of the resolution is.
“I don’t want to jump the gun,” Singh said.
