Sri Lanka
The UN and Britain have now called for a war crimes investigation, and the United States has said it is blocking Sri Lanka’s application for a $1.9 billion emergency loan from the International Monetary Fund because of its conduct of the war.
IMO: Good. Russia and China are the major culprits as they blocked UN intervention earlier. China is more trouble than its worth, and should have its status in the UN reviewed - downwards. USA citizens cannot live in fear of China forever. What the Chinese think I do not fully know, but the downgrading of Russia after the end of the USSR followed the wishes of the Russian people, far more than it did Western intrigue. And Putin is hardly a match even for Peter Tatchell, never mind the others. But I am not sure that the world has time to wait for China to become more literate and reasonable. The Greens should know the world may come to an end before that happens.
