Sri Lanka: Medici Senza Frontiere sospende le attività mediche

10/27/2006 Medici Senza Frontiere (Msf) ha deciso di sospendere tutte le attività mediche in Sri Lanka e di ritirarsi anche dalla penisola di Jaffna, il solo ospedale dove poteva lavorare. La decisione avviene dopo che l'organizzazione umanitaria aveva ricevuto una lettera da parte del governo che annullava i permessi di permanenza nel Paese e domandava di lasciare il paese, seguita da una seconda lettera ufficiale che permetteva di restare fino a nuovo ordine e informava che era in corso un'inchiesta sulle attività dell'organizzazione, mentre sulla stampa locale comparivano accuse di collaborazionismo coi ribelli Tamil attraverso attività clandestine "attentando alla sicurezza nazionale". "Ma non abbiamo accettato di essere espulsi e diffamati e insistiamo a perseguire la via diplomatica" - commenta Gianfranco De Maio, Direttore esecutivo in Italia. MSF ribadisce di essere "una organizzazione indipendente di soccorso medico neutrale che presta soccorso medico a tutte le vittime, a qualsiasi schieramento facciano riferimento".
