Construction, Engineering Services, Housing and Common Amenities Minister of Sri Lanka Wimal Weerawansa says the Western nations were trying to create a scenario similar to that of Kosovo.
Weerawansa addressing a felicitation ceremony for athletes from Dambulla has said the international community wrested power of Kosovo after separating the nation from Serbia and bringing war crimes charges against former Kosovo President Milosevic.
He has noted that Kosovo was now under the control of the Western nations and the country is being ruled by lackeys of the Western countries.
He has pointed out that the US tried to get hold of Kosovo since it was an East European country that is rich in oil and Sri Lanka was now facing a similar threat from the US.
According to Weerawansa, the Western countries are attempting to bring war crimes charges against President Mahinda Rajapaksa since he cannot be controlled by the Western countries.
He has said that all Sri Lankans must unite to help the government and safeguard the country.
