In a scathing attack against the visit of US State Secretary Mike Pompeo, Weerawansa stated that the move to open an office of US Bar Association in Colombo was for appearing for the US criminals like rapists who would roam freely after the ACSA and SOFA agreements are signed by Sri Lanka. He said that these agreements would enable US to use the ports and airports of Sri Lanka while US officials would be immune from the law of Sri Lanka.
He added that the move to open the office of the US Bar Association in Colombo had been delayed due to the protest of Bar Association of Sri Lanka.
