We hope to continue working through UN mechanisms and partner countries to support this major step towards accountability, the United States department of state says in its statement which was released on 24th of March after UN human rights council resolution adapted.
The United States co-sponsored a resolution led by the United Kingdom on “Promoting reconciliation, accountability, and human rights in Sri Lanka.” The United States, in collaboration with the Sri Lanka Core Group and likeminded countries, worked to include a mandate for OHCHR to collect, analyze and preserve information and evidence and to develop possible strategies for future accountability processes for violations of human rights and international humanitarian law. We hope to continue working through UN mechanisms and partner countries to support this major step towards accountability, further said.
