[edit] Removed information
I removed the following from the article since it is not specifically about Rupesinghe. I suspect it was copied from some website as was most of the other information in the article's initial state. I've saved it here for future reference:
- International Alert has been involved in mediation and conflict resolution in Sri Lanka, Philippines, Fiji, Sierra Leone, Burundi, Rwanda, the Caucuses region, and the Russian Federation. International Alert made a decisive intervention in the conflict in Sierra Leone, and co-facilitated the mediation process together with the Foreign Minister of the Côte D'Ivoire, the U.N. the O.A.U and the Commonwealth Secretariat. Their efforts eventually led to the Abidjan Accords. In Liberia at the request of President Carter early efforts were made to encourage dialogue between the now President Charles Taylor of Liberia and President Abacha of Nigeria. These initial dialogues eventually led to a settlement of the civil war in Liberia. In Burundi, at the request of the former Secretary General Bourtros Ghalli, International Alert was in effective collaboration with the UN Special Envoy, Ould Abdallah. This co-operation led to a major programme in Burundi and the development of an extensive network in Burundi called the Apostles of Peace. In Sri Lanka, International Alert undertook many complimentary efforts to contribute towards the resolution of the conflict there, with many problem-solving workshops including all the parties to the conflicts. Of special interest was a programme to take twenty MPs from all the political parties to learn from the experience from Northern Ireland, South Africa and the Philippines.
