FILE- In this Tuesday Feb. 28, 2017 file photo, Mathiaparanan Abraham Sumanthiran, a lawmaker from the Tamil National Alliance, listens to a question during a meeting with a group of journalists in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena has kept his country’s internal political rift from spilling over to a UN human rights council meeting this week by abandoning plans to oppose his prime minister’s decision to co-sponsor a resolution that would give the island nation more time to address war crime allegations stemming from its long civil war. The co-resolution to be adopted on March 21, 2019, would give Sri Lanka two more years to investigate and prosecute suspects of rights violations. “Our position is that the international supervision should be extended and if it is not, Sri Lankan issue will be a finished matter in the human rights council,” M.A. Sumanthiran, spokesman of the Tamil National Alliance said in a Tamil radio interview.
