EU says Sri Lanka fighting may endanger peace talks
BRUSSELS - The European Union said on Saturday it feared renewed fighting in Sri Lanka could endanger the resumption of peace talks between the government and rebel Tamil Tigers this month.
Nothing gets past the EU ...
Finland, the holder of the rotating EU presidency, called on both sides to create an environment for constructive discussion ahead of the talks planned for Oct. 28-29 in Geneva. “The presidency is deeply concerned about the increasing violations of human rights and international humanitarian law,” the presidency said in a statement.

It urged the Sri Lankan government and the rebels to ensure humanitarian aid deliveries had free access to areas hit by the conflict and that the security of humanitarian workers was guaranteed.
