The US State Department is unlikely to accept anything less than a clear cut road map to implement the human rights council resolution from the Sri Lankan government.
The State Department is likely to push for this when External Affairs Minister Prof. G.L. Pieris is expected to visit US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in Washington DC, tomorrow (18).
The State Department officials have already informed some influential US lawmakers, who are interested in Sri Lanka’s human rights record that the State Department has anticipated a clear solution from Sri Lankan delegation and they will not buy anything less than that.
