President Ranil Wickremesinghe announced that a crucial discussion between the Government of Sri Lanka and international sovereign bondholders will take place tomorrow (19). Following this meeting, Sri Lanka is expected to receive international support once the country’s bankruptcy is fully resolved.
The President also expressed his satisfaction, stating that he was entrusted with a task and he is pleased to report that the work entrusted to him has been successfully completed by September 21. He made these remarks during the “Ranil Can” victory rally at Matara Uyanwatta Stadium earlier today (18), which drew a large crowd in support of his re-election campaign.
President Wickremesinghe highlighted that he successfully addressed the country’s economic crisis with the motto “Puluwan Sri Lanka” (Yes we Can) and emphasized that the current focus is on developing the nation under the same banner. He stressed the importance of electing a leader capable of leading the country forward.
The President questioned why Sajith Premadasa and Anura Kumara Dissanayake did not take over the government two years ago if they had solutions to the economic problems. He reminded the public that Sajith’s team had previously claimed that the country’s economy could not be rebuilt.
In his address, President Wickremesinghe reiterated his commitment to guiding Sri Lanka toward economic recovery and development.
