Sri Lanka's president Mahinda Rajapaksa announced that the country would not succumb to foreign pressure, whilst speaking at Temple Trees at a meeting of the Fiscal Officer's Union this weekend.
“We cannot allow this country to go backwards,” said Mahinda Rajapaksa.
“We are not prepared to dance to the tune of outsiders. People jumping here and there is part of this attempt but we will not be shaken. We have faith in the public. We believe they are more intelligent about their leaders.”
