LTTE mellows down Tamil Eelam demand Seeks credible alternative proposals
Assuring that their demand for Tamil Eelam is not against India's interest, the LTTE has said that it sought "credible alternate proposals" to resolve the 25-year-old ethnic conflict.
"We believe firmly, our strong cultural ties to our brothers and sisters in India will help their policy makers to select a just and fair path towards our people," senior LTTE leader, Mr KV Balakumaran said.
"We have said clearly Tamil Eelam is not against India; we will uphold Indian welfare as our own. There was a time, when India looked after our welfare as her own. India will change its current policy towards us one day," he told the Australian Tamil Bro adcasting Corporation (ATBC).
He said the LTTE was guided by the ideal of a separate homeland since its inception. "However, the movement has articulated clearly that it is open to examining credible alternate proposals. We regret that this request has not received the attention it deserves," Mr Balakumaran said.
