LTTE rejects peace offer

By V.S. Sambandan

COLOMBO MAY 30. The LTTE today rejected Colombo's latest offer of a development-oriented structure for the northeast as ``unacceptable'' and stuck to its demand for an interim administration.

The LTTE's chief negotiator, Anton Balasingham, in a letter to the Sri Lankan Prime Minister, Ranil Wickremesinghe, said the Tigers were ``surprised'' and ``dismayed'' that Colombo ``did not address the critical issue of setting up an interim administrative structure for the northeast as suggested by the LTTE leadership''.
