Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa says Israel and Palestine functioning peacefully as two countries is the official policy and program of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB).
MP Sajith Premadasa said he stands firmly for protecting the rights of the Palestinian people because it is just and fair.
“The peaceful coexistence of Israel and Palestine as two independent countries is the official policy and program of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya,” he emphasized.
MP Premadasa further said that the Palestinian people are currently facing state terrorism from Israel, with civilians, including children, mothers, and women, being subjected to genocide in the Gaza Strip.
Strongly condemning these acts of genocide, he stressed that until the rights of the Palestinian people are secured and the murderous culture of state terrorism, including the bombing of hospitals, comes to an end, his party will not maintain any friendship or association with those who practice such brutality.
He further reiterated that this is the unwavering policy and position of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya, and no external influence can alter it.
MP Premadasa also called for an immediate end to the mass killings and targeted attacks on the Palestinian people.
The Opposition Leader made the remarks while addressing the Parliament of Sri Lanka today. (Newswire)
