Minister peiris said that the the spokesperson had concentrated on  the final stages of the war,  but the Sri Lankan government wishes to  question as to why there should be focus only on the final stages of the  conflict.STRelated story<a href="http://www.elakiri.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1283662" target="_blank">US voices concern on Sri Lanka war report</a></blockquote>
