Minister Keheliya Rambukwella says the Sri Lankan government will face the upcoming United Nations Human Rights Council with grit.
Speaking to media in Kandy today, the Minister said the former good governance lost the confidence of the international community, adding that as a result the present government has faced many obstacles.
Minister Rambukwella said the UNHRC has made various baseless allegations over the prevalent situation in Sri Lanka adding that certain groups led Sri Lanka to the present state of affairs.
The Minister claimed Sri Lanka will be answerable to the UNHRC and the world for its actions during the term of the former government.
He explained that the former government introduced the 30/1 resolution and accepted the charges levelled against the country, promising to punish military personnel.
Minister Rambukwella hoped the government’s honesty would triumph against international forces.
