Tamil Tiger rebels reject airport as venue for crucial cease-fire review talks Associated Press, Thu 8th Sep 11:00GMT. Sri Lanka's peace process suffered a fresh blow Thursday when Tamil Tiger rebels rejected the Colombo airport as a locale for crucial talks to prevent the collapse of a fragile cease-fire. The airport ``cannot be a venue for meaningful political discussions and the argument that it is secure for LTT (Tamil Tigers) as a transit point to a location outside Sri Lanka, does not hold,'' S.P. Thamilselvan was quoted as saying on a rebel Web site.
The rebels disclosed their position during a meeting with Norwegian truce-monitors and peace brokers.
