Tamil Tigers deliver peace blow

BBC, Friday, 28 January, 2005, 15:34 GMT . Sri Lanka's Tamil Tiger rebels have ruled out talks on tsunami reconstruction being used to revive the country's peace process.
The Tigers' senior negotiator, Anton Balasingham said efforts needed to be focused on "alleviating hardships" rather than political matters. He was speaking ahead of talks in the capital, Colombo, over tsunami aid.
Meanwhile, the Tigers have again rejected a report by the UN that they continue to recruit child soldiers.
