| Subject: Sri Lanka rejects dialogue appeal, would rather keep murdering the Tamil Tigers Thu Feb 05, 2009 3:12 am | |
| The Sri Lankan government has rejected a call by international donors to the Tamil Tiger rebels to negotiate terms of surrender with the government.
Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa told the BBC that the government would only accept an "unconditional surrender" by the rebels.
The donors - the US, Japan, Norway and the European Union - have also called on the Tigers to lay down their arms.
The government has ruled out a ceasefire and vowed to crush them.
