The United States, together with the  international community, sent a strong signal that Sri Lanka will only  achieve lasting peace through real reconciliation and accountability,  and the international community stands ready to help.  The next steps  are clear. We look to the Government of Sri Lanka to implement the  constructive recommendations of the Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation  Commission (LLRC) and take the necessary measures to address  accountability. We are committed to working with the Sri Lankan  government to help realize this goal, and I look forward to discussing  future actions with Foreign Minister Peiris soon. We will continue the  productive working relationship we have with the Sri Lankan Government  based on shared values, respect and constructive dialogue. Most  important, we seek to strengthen our partnership with all the people of  Sri Lanka.</blockquote>
