Should be more sincere. A State Department official simply making a statement. The Chinese Premier took the trouble to personally write a letter. The Indian Prime Minister too extended personal wishes while the High Commissioner paid a personal visit.

The USA remitted money via a NGO in Rajagiriya for these political parties to sustain the aragalaya. So they will work closely with them while pretending that they don't much fancy them. This is Geo Politics and RW and now AKD are puppets on strings. We have to live with this reality for ever it looks like.
