Colombo (LNW): Ranil Wickremesinghe, the incumbent President, has resorted to a cunning strategy of spreading false propaganda in the same manner which dictator Hitler used Nazi propagandist Goebbels for in his operation of spreading lies through the press during World War II, said Leader of the Opposition Sajith Premadasa in a special statement today (18).

A mass propaganda campaign of turning truth into lies and the vice versa is being carried out by a group of people who call themselves journalists, only to insult the profession, he noted.

Premadasa denied the claim of members of his Party the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) craving for ministerial posts and the post of Prime Minister, stating that no such negotiation has taken place with the government, adding that the SJB will never back a regime which has been rejected by the people and a President who has no mandate.

The Opposition Leader, therefore, urged the people not to be deceived by such false propaganda.
