President Mahinda Rajapaksa of Sri Lanka met Right Honourable David Cameron , Britain’s Leader of Opposition yesterday June 5 in the Opposition Leader’s office in Westminster London.

Sri Lanka’s terrorist menace and the country’s developmental activities in the Eastern Province after democracy has been re-introduced in to the area and Sri Lanka’s trade relations with the European Union were among issues of bilateral interests believed to have been discussed at the meeting.

While Foreign Minister Rohitha Bogollagama accompanied the Sri Lankan President, William Hague, the Deputy Conservative Party leader, accompanied Cameron. Hague is also the Opposition’s shadow Foreign Secretary and senior member of the shadow cabinet.

Political analysts in Britain think Cameron is today, the most important politician in the United Kingdom and strongly tipped to be the next Prime minister of Britain.

Cameron has been described as the best hope for the British Conservative Party, which has been in the decline in its political fortunes for a long period of time. With his youthful good looks the oxford educated David Cameron (42) has regularly been dubbed the opposition's Tony Blair and a leading opponent of international terrorism.
