This is an article published in an unbiased war enthusiast's website, which explains the duplicity & cheap politics of UN & Europe (Sorry if Repost)
June 4, 2009: The UN, and many European nations, are very angry at Sri Lanka for defeating the separatist Tamil rebels, after nearly 30 years of fighting. The UN, and particularly Norway, were trying hard to work out a peace deal. The Tamils, represented by the LTTE (an organization eventually recognized as an international terrorist group) refused to budge on their demand for partition of the island. A decade ago, the LTTE controlled a third of the island, although Tamils are only 13 percent of the population. It used to be 18 percent, but many have fled because of the LTTE violence, and government attempts to cope. Three years ago, fed up with over a decade of failed peace efforts, the government determined to crush the LTTE and regain control of the entire island.
This went against UN, and European, beliefs, which held that you cannot destroy a popular uprising with force. You must negotiate. This terrified the Sri Lankans, as the UN and Europe had recently detached Kosovo from Serbia and arranged for Kosovo to become an independent nation.
