Sri Lanka – Signing of Joint Mechanism on Tsunami Aid Distribution

The United States welcomes the signing on June 24, by the Government of Sri Lanka and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam’s of an agreement creating a joint mechanism for managing tsunami reconstruction. This mechanism holds the prospect for efficient and equitable reconstruction assistance to those whose lives were devastated by the South Asia tsunami in the North and East of Sri Lanka. We hope experience implementing this agreement will help to build confidence and lead to progress in the broader peace process.
