The Peacebuilding Commission yesterday issued the following statement condemning the terrorist attacks committed on Sunday in Sri Lanka.

The Peacebuilding Commission condemns in the strongest terms the series of heinous and cowardly terrorist attacks committed on Sunday in Sri Lanka against innocent civilians with over 321 deaths and more than 500 injured. The Commission extends its sincere condolences to the families and loved ones of all victims of these attacks.

The inhumane attacks occurred not long after 17 April, when the Government of Sri Lanka came before the Peacebuilding Commission to present the country’s progress in advancing Peacebuilding and transitional justice in Sri Lanka through strengthening democracy, good governance, reconciliation and fostering development. The Peacebuilding Commission calls to the international community for urgent and collective support and reaffirms its commitment to stand together in support of Peacebuilding and sustaining peace efforts in Sri Lanka.
