In consonance with the terms of the truce agreement between the government and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), Tamil paramilitary groups handed over weapons to the Sri Lankan Army. On March 24, District Organizers of the Elam People’s Democratic Party (EPDP), People’s Liberation Organisation of Tamil Eelam (PLOTE), both the factions of the Eelam People’s Revolutionary Liberation Front (EPRLF), respectively T. Pushparaja, Ashok, Ragunathan and Sinnathurai (Sivam) handed their weapons to the General Officer Commanding (GOC), Trincomalee, Brigadier Ratnasabapathy. The four party coalition, Tamil National Alliance (TNA), however, expressed the apprehension that all weapons might not be handed over and said the Army alone was aware of the quantities of weapons available with the paramilitary groups.

Reports said on May 2 that the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) has ruled that the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) has not violated the terms of the truce agreement It said it does not consider the sailing of a Sea Tiger convoy, intercepted and challenged by Sri Lankan navy gunboats near Trincomalee seas, April 124, as a breach of ongoing cease-fire. SLMM chief monitor General Tronde Furuhovde said it was a mistake on its part to not inform the planned movement to the naval authorities. The convoy consisted of rebel leaders returning to the Eastern province after attending crucial meetings in the Vanni at the LTTE headquarters.

Condemning the attack on the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam’s (LTTE) office in Mutur allegedly by Muslim militants, the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) said "sinister elements" were seeking to forment communal strife. Reports said on June 23 that the LTTE informed the SLMM in Trincomalee that the 'Osama' wing of a Jihadi group, which it did not name, had attacked its political office in Muttur. Meanwhile, SLMC chief and Ports Minister Rauf Hakeem held extensive talks with security force officials on the tension that has built up in the Trincomalee district following the attack.

Addressing a gathering in Trincomalee, on the occasion of Black Tigers Day, Trincomalee district LTTE women’s wing secretary Krishna said, "The Sri Lankan security forces test our patience frequently. But we won't violate the cease-fire agreement signed by our leader with the Sri Lankan government. At the same time we will not do anything that will derail the ceasefire agreement". She also alleged that the attacks on LTTE activists and offices ‘clearly showed that the true intention of the culprits was sabotaging the peace process.’

Inaugurating a new berth at Trincomalee Port, on August 16, Prime Minister Ranil Wickremasinghe said the forthcoming September-peace talks between the government and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam (LTTE) were critical for the economic development of the country. He said his government has "strengthened the ongoing peace process by laying a firm foundation for the proposed peace talks." Declaring his firm resolve to take the peace process further, he said he would not let obstacles and delays to impair the peace process. Economic progress could be achieved only if the peace process marched ahead towards permanent peace, he averred.

He urged, "Peace loving people of the country should not allow these elements to succeed." Lamenting at the economic crisis the country is faced with, Markar said success in the ongoing peace efforts was vital to find a solution to the vexed, nearly two-decade long ‘national question’ and restore peace and economic stability.

Prime Minister Ranil Wickremasinghe said the ‘goal’ of the forthcoming three-day talks in Thailand, anytime between September 12 and 17, with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) is to find a ‘permanent solution’ to the protracted ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka without dividing the country. He was addressing the ruling United National Party’s national executive committee meeting, in Trincomalee, on August 18. The Premier said said there could be neither a fixed time frame nor could the talks start with tabling ‘concrete’ proposals, but both sides have to understand one another and the ‘basic problems each faced’. He said he visualised differences arising at the subsequent rounds of talks, especially on the proposed Interim Administration to be set-up in the North and East. The problems being faced by the Muslim community is another tricky issue, he said and added that securi6y forces camps in public places in Muslim areas would be wound-up after consulting the Muslim community, but elsewhere these camps would soon be wound up. Vacating public places under occupation by the security forces has been a major issue of contention between the government and the LTTE. The security forces are obliged by the terms of the ‘permanent cease-fire agreement’ to vacate all public places under their occupation, but are yet to do so, though the dead line for the same has passed by.

Tamil National Alliance (TNA) leader and national list Member of Parliament (MP) R.Sampanthan emphasised the need for unity among Tamils and Muslims, while speaking on September 23, at the Tamil Language Day celebrations in Trincomalee. He said the Northeast was much home to the Muslims as it is to the Tamils. "Tamils and Muslims should shed their differences, especially in the northeast province, if we are to achieve sustainable peace, he declared, and reminded his audience that the two had been living in the area since centuries. Religion alone was the distinguishing factor between the two communities and they are united by language he said. He further said the Muslim delegation would discus inter-community relations with the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) at the next round of peace talks in Thailand.

Trond Furuhovde is likely to meet the with Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) leaders in Trincomalee today, October 1, to seek the release of the seven government soldiers detained by the LTTE when they were in the Vilgamvehera area, which is claimed by both the government and the LTTE. "The Head of the Mission plans to meet LTTE leaders … in Trincomalee to mediate the release of the soldiers," SLMM deputy chief Haugruph Haukland was quoted in the state-run Daily News as having said. Reports said, the LTTE’s political-wing head in Trincomalee, Kannan, has already informed the SLMM that the soldiers would be released if the government set free two LTTE cadres under detention.

The Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM), on October 1, demanded immediate access for Monitors and humanitarian agencies to the seven government soldiers detained by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and the release of one of them on humanitarian grounds. The state-run Daily News said, on October 2, SLMM Chief Maj Gen (Retd) Trond Furuhovde made these demands when he met with LTTE political-wing leaders in Trincomalee. "The SLMM Chief visited the area where the soldiers were taken into custody and analysed the maps of the Security Forces and LTTE held areas," SLMM Spokesman Teitur Torkelsson said. He added, "There are different claims by both sides. The maps seem to be overlapping." The SLMM also said it had reason to believe that the LTTE would not reject its demand. Besides, reports said the LTTE would release the soldier and another as soon as two LTTE cadres in government detention are set free on bail.

Media reports said the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), on October 4, complained to the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) that the Sri Lankan Navy was preparing to establish a new camp on the coast near Kuchchaveli divisional secretariat, 34km north of Trincomalee. Reports claimed that the Navy has already placed a request for land from local authorities. LTTE political-wing Trincomalee head S. Tilak reportedly condemned the move in his complaint to SLMM head. Tilak reportedly said in his letter, "We consider this act as a violation of the cease-fire agreement intended to derail the present peace process. Hence, we request you to take immediate steps to stop the establishment of a new SLN camp in the area."

Media reports from Sri Lanka, quoting police sources on November 2, said the Sri Lankan Navy has arrested at least six Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) cadres while they were transporting 35 claymore mines, 17 handheld communication receivers and a satellite antenna, off Trincomalee, on November 1 night. Reports said the LTTE was moving the mines and other equipment in a boat to probably the LTTE-controlled Sampur area, near Trincomalee. The Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) has been informed of the incident and the subsequent arrests. A Trincomalee court has remanded the arrested cadres to police custody till November 15. In Killinochchi the LTTE reportedly said the arrests would have no bearing on the ongoing second round of peace talks.
