Veerasingham Anandasangaree (Tamil: வீரசிங்கம் ஆனந்தசங்கரி; born 15 June 1933) is a Sri Lankan Tamil politician, former Member of Parliament and leader of the Tamil United Liberation Front. He is commonly known as Sangaree.[1] A vocal critic of violence committed by all sides, Sangaree is a supporter of federalism similar to that of India as a solution to Sri Lanka's ethnic conflict.[2][3]
