Speaking at a media briefing convened by the Unity through Power Devolution Movement on Wednesday,  National Unity Front Leader Azad Sally, expressed the following views:

”The president gave a statement at the National Executive Council meeting. He clearly said that, if the minorities have an issue with this electoral system, he would not sign any of those documents.  We appreciate that very much and we are very happy about it.  We also express our pleasure about the statement he made yesterday at the central committee meeting. He had said that racism among SLFP members should be prevented and that he would not let it happen. You should remember one thing. He clearly said that this government would not have been possible if not for the votes of the Sinhalese, the Tamils and the Muslims.”
