Separately, troops confronted a group of LTTE cadres in the north of Giant Tank in the Vavuniya district and killed two of them. Three soldiers were also injured. The Finance and State Revenue Minister Ranjith Siyambalapitiya on October 10 told Parliament that the former United National Party (UNP) government had given millions of rupees to the LTTE Peace Secretariat and the Tamil Rehabilitation Organisation (TRO) without seeking approval from Parliament, reports Daily News. The Minister said that the then UNP Government in 2004 released Rupees 3.15 million to the LTTE Peace Secretariat to pay duty on radio equipment imported by the LTTE. The UNP had also given rupees 13.02 million to the LTTE Peace Secretariat to purchase six 4WD Double Cabs. According to the Minister, the former UNP government also gave Rupees 60 million to implement four TRO projects. All together, the UNP has paid Rupees 76.17 million to the LTTE without seeking any Cabinet approval. Meanwhile, the United States reiterated that despite recent military victories both the Sri Lankan government and the LTTE must realize there can be no military solution to Sri Lanka's conflict, Colombo Page reported. Ambassador Robert Blake said in Colombo that the Sri Lankan military has achieved important victories in the past year, adding that "such victories and U.S. support for Sri Lanka should demonstrate to the LTTE that they cannot hope to win this conflict". <http://www.satp.org/satporgtp/detailed_news.asp?date1=10/11/2007 <http://www.satp.org/satporgtp/detailed_news.asp?date1=10/11/2007> > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
