The Chinese government has decided to provide emergency humanitarian assistance to Sri Lanka to help the country cope with the current difficulties, news agencies reported.
The spokesperson for China International Development Cooperation Agency, Xu Wei, on Tuesday, said China had noticed Sri Lanka’s economic difficulties and was ready to help.
Wei said, “We believe that the Sri Lankan government and people will overcome the temporary difficulties and maintain economic and social stability and development.”
Sri Lanka had been in the midst of a severe economic crisis featuring shortages of foreign exchange, fuel, and other essential supplies as well as rising inflation.
On Tuesday, protests had resumed across the country over the fuel price hike.
The protesters were demanding the resignation of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa and Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa, who is the president’s brother.
The economic crisis in Sri Lanka had meant a lack of the United States dollars, which had affected imports.

Of course, they are seeing that their puppet is about to chased and want to protect him more than anything else.

No Thanks China! You are partners in crime with the Rajapaksha regime and equally culpable for the state SL is in today!

Is it because of the “filial love, over powering your lamented love for the poor masses” of Sri Lanka? Or was it, CROCODILE TEARS OF A SO CALLED DESHAPREMI? Brotherly love and affection?!!!

Waiting on the 'Sidelines until death and destruction' becomes the order of the day!!! What happened to the deferment of the 51 Billion Chinese loan repayment? Shedding "CROC" tears?? “Stony silence is the name of the game??!!”

We sure are deep in the Chinese debt (death) trap. Many African countries have suffered the same fate, with all powerful dictators taking billions in loans from China, transferring them to their personal accounts and leave the country high and dry at the mercy of China.

We are sandwiched between influence of China and India. But Indians are anytime better than the Chinese scum. Down with Rajapaksas and their Chinese masters .
