Peiris briefed heads of diplomatic  missions in Colombo last Thursday regarding the Government’s stance on  the report of the UN Panel.                        While a ministry  official confirmed that an invitation was sent to the Chinese Ambassador  and was followed up by a call to confirm it was received, the  ambassador was not present at the meeting.                                               The Sunday Times learns  that the ministry is trying to find out why the ambassador of China,  one of Sri Lanka’s strongest allies in its fight to ensure the  UN  report does not lead to any action against the country, was absent.</blockquote>
