Sri Lanka Britain Relations

Sri Lanka shipped out to Britain on Monday the last of several hundred containers filled with thousands of tonnes of illegally imported waste, officials said.

Around 195 files including documents relating to relations between India and Sri Lanka at the peak of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) led civil war have been destroyed by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), sparking concern among archivists and researchers.

The year 2013 saw positive momentum in India-UK ties with Prime Minister David Cameron leading not one but two delegations to India within months to strengthen bilateral relations though actions like a visa bond scheme conflicted with these initiatives.
