Geneva resolution: A diplomatic challenge Daily News (via HT Media Ltd.)
Sri Lanka will face its next major diplomatic hurdle in the coming weeks when it confronts a resolution against it at the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) sessions in Geneva, a practise which has now become almost an annual ritual for successive governments in Colombo.
These resolutions arose in the aftermath of the conclusion of the Eelam war in May 2009. Following the end of the conflict, there were allegations that human rights were violated by both Sri Lankan troops and members of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) terrorist group.
