Estonia welcomes the delegation of Sri Lanka to its 3rd
UPR cycle and we thank them for the presentation of the national report.
We take note of the efforts by the government of Sri
Lanka in the promotion and protection of human rights in collaboration with the
relevant UN human rights bodies, and the standing invitation issued to all
special procedures. We welcome the recently finalised National Human Rights
Action Plan 2017-2021, which was reviewed in light of the UPR voluntary pledges

ensure that the commitments under the UN HRC Resolution 30/1 and 34/1 are met
and encourage further steps in this regard.

Estonia wishes Sri Lanka success in implementing these
measures.
Thank you.
