"To us all towns are one, all men our kin.
Life's good comes not from others' gift, nor ill
Man's pains and pains' relief are from within.
Thus have we seen in visions of the wise !."
- Tamil Poem in Purananuru, circa 500 B.C

LTTE delegation arrives in Switzerland

More than two hundred Swiss Tamils carrying Tamileelam National flag and flags of their adopted country Switzerland, welcomed the Liberation Tigers delegation at the Zurich Airport at 7:45 p.m. Sunday 11 June 2006. The LTTE delegation completed discussions with the Norwegian facilitators and with the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) Friday and met with the LTTE's Constitutional Affairs Committee Saturday. The non-cabinet level Sri Lanka delegation left Oslo mid-day Thursday after refusing to meet with a similar level group from the LTTE delegation.

Members of the Swiss Tamil Youth Organization presented bouquet of flowers to the Senior LTTE leaders led by Head of LTTE Political Wing, S.P. Thamilchelvan.  Head of Tamileelam Police, P Nadesan, Director of LTTE Peace Secretariat, Puleedevan and Translator George accompanied Mr Thamilchelvan. Legal Advisor, V Rudrakumar returned to the US Sunday. The Swiss Tamils at the airport told the LTTE members that they share in the suffering and misery of NorthEast Tamils, and asked the delegation to carry their messages of support and affection to the people in the NorthEast.
