Libyan Al-Jamahiriyah TV (government channel) said: “The Sri Lankan president asked the brother leader to inform him about the current developments in Libya.”

The TV said the Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi informed President Rajapaksa “about the extent of the conspiracy which targets the security, stability and national unity of the Libyan people.”

President Rajapaksa for his part “expressed his and Sri Lankan people's full solidarity with the Libyan people in the face of this conspiracy,” the report added.

President Rajapaksa twice visited Libya in April and August 2009.

The President’s eldest son, Namal Rajapaksa, MP, led a parliamentary delegation to Libya on 16 January, this year.

He was accompanied by Sajin de Vass Gunawardena, MP and Coordinating Secretary to the President, Duminda Silva, MP, Lohan Ratwatte, MP, Dilhan Tharanath Basnayaka, MP, and Indika Karunajeewa, Senior Assistant Secretary to the President.

Director General of President’s Media Unit Bandula Jayasekara told BBC Sandeshaya that the Libyan leader was requested by President Rajapaksa “to establish peace in the country as soon as possible.”

President also requested Col Gaddafi “to safeguard the lives of the Libyan people,” he added.
