President Ranil Wickremesinghe will soon leave for China on an official tour, sources said. Wickremesinghe’s departure has also been hinted by Sri Lankan Ambassador to China Palitha Kohona during an interview with Reuters.
The SL Ambassador has requested the Chinese government to provide continuous support in the fields of trade investment and tourism and encourage Chinese companies to buy products such as Sri Lankan tea, spices, garments and gems.
Every predecessor regimes led by the Rajapaksas followed a pro-China agenda in their foreign policies and analysts argue that the policy will remain unchanged under Wickremesinghe’s regime.
