Opposition Leader urges Govt to condemn attack on Iran, retaliatory attacks

Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa said the Samagi Jana Balawegaya will condemn the recent attack on Iran and called on the Sri Lankan government to issue a similar statement.

Addressing Parliament, Premadasa said the government led by President Anura Kumara Dissanayake should not hesitate to denounce the act of aggression in violation of international law, including Articles 2(4) and 2(7) of the United Nations Charter.

“I propose that the entire House condemn this, as it was an attack against a sovereign nation. It is good if the government issues a statement condemning this. We should not be afraid of it,” he said.

Premadasa also said Sri Lanka should condemn retaliatory attacks targeting the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain. (Newswire)
