No scheduled meeting with TNA but with GL

Recent media reports incorrectly state that Secretary Clinton has invited the TNA to visit Washington.

The Secretary invited Minister G. L. Peiris to Washington on May 18 and welcomes that visit.

While the United States seeks to engage with all political parties in Sri Lanka, there is no visit scheduled for the TNA, either before or after that meeting, states a US embassy in Sri Lanka in a statement.
