"With the mediation help by the Norwegian government, I believe this process will succeed this time," Velupillai Prabhakaran, founder and sole leader of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, said Wednesday. Nevertheless, Prabhakaran said, there will be no talks until the government lifts a ban on his group, which has been declared a terrorist organization in six countries including the United States. He also said that the conditions were not yet right for giving up his fight for an independent Tamil state. Prabhakaran, addressing reporters in a secret location near Kilinochchi, about 435 kilometers (250 miles) north of the capital of Colombo, said the struggle for political independence was the demand of the Tamil people. Local and foreign journalists were escorted to the site of the news conference after elaborate security measures. The 47-year-old Prabhakaran, considered a terrorist by the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia, India and Sri Lanka, has been rarely seen in public. His followers have included suicide bombers responsible for the assassinations of several leaders, including former Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, in May 1991, and Sri Lankan President Ranasinghe Premadasa, in May 1993.
