(April 07, Oslo, Sri Lanka Guardian) US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton discussed the current crisis in Sri Lanka, the humanitarian conditions and peace process, during a meeting with her Norwegian counterpart Jonas Gahr Stoere. In a joint media interaction after the meeting at the Foggy Bottom headquarters of the State Department, Clinton said Sri Lanka did figure up during their talks along with other issues. “We discussed Norway's untiring efforts to end the bloodshed in Sri Lanka,'' Clinton told reporters.
“Together, we are looking for ways to address common challenges such as the impact of climate change and a number of regional issues, from Afghanistan to the Middle East to Sri Lanka,'' she said. No further details were immediately available.
Norway played a key role in brokering a ceasefire between the Sri Lankan government and the LTTE in 2002.

Norway came in like a bull in a china shop and made matters worse for Sri Lanka and the Sri Lankan Tamils by buttressing the LTTE, by supplying it with communication equipment, possibly arms, as well as a place in the international stage, even though this LTTE was a mafia organization led by a dangerous killer.
The LTTE hijacked the Tamil nationalist movement and assisinated its leaders, and Norway gave credibility to this hijacker outfit.
