Sri Lanka would be caught in an international warfare if the government failed to handle geo-political interests of China and India carefully, UNP MP, Gamini Jayawickrema Perera warned in Parliament today.

MP Perera cautioned the government to act prudently in this regard without compromising the safety of the country for economic ends.

“I want to put this on record. I warn that Sri Lanka will bleed at the hones of an international warfare. However, I hope and pray it will not happen,” he said.

“I fear whether Sri Lanka will suffer like countries such as Afghanistan and Sudan. Today, China is constructing a harbour. India is also worried about the situation.” MP Perera said (KB & YP)
