India has given 4 billion dollars in aid
Since January this year till now, the Government of India has assisted with about $ 4 billion to Sri Lanka. This includes fuel, cash reserves, and food items. According to one figure, the Sri Lankan government still needs $5 billion for six months' needs. In this country with a population of 20 million, the situation is slowly moving towards peace.
According to media reports, apart from the US and Japan, India also wants the IMF to give a loan to Sri Lanka as soon as possible so that there is no starvation crisis and China does not get a chance to expand again. It is believed that this week Sri Lanka will get the installment from the IMF.
ex-president defense
Last week, Wickremesinghe defended former President Gotabaya Rajapaksa. Wickremesinghe had said – the situation in the country is not such that Gotabaya should return. If the former president returns to Sri Lanka, the protests will certainly flare up once again. Flames can rise again in the country.
In April, lakhs of people took to the streets in different cities against Gotabaya. Before this, his brother and former Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa had left the country. On July 13, Gotabaya also fled from Colombo to Singapore via the Maldives.
