China should take responsibility for this
This is what happens when a government becomes corrupt and tries to rule the people!! Thank you Sri Lanka for fighting against this evil they call green new deal👍God Bless your people and bring prosperity back to your beautiful country 🌎❤
Interesting that the words "coup" and "insurrection" was not used a single time during this report.
Nancy pelosi is watching this with chuck Schumer planning to give a speech labeling these people trump supporters and radical far right white supremecists.
We need to do this here in America
Every country that institutes green energy policies this happens.. every single time
Father: son I was president for 2 days and lived in presidential palace.
Hey…fake news…THIS is a insurrection! January 6 was a protest
10% of Sri Lanka debt is from China , 12% from Japan & 45% from Western countries .
Western countries Debt Traps ( IMF etc …. ) are 4.5 times bigger ? ? ?
Sri Lanka has grown too much Tea for UK , and not enough food for themselves .
They are not able to obtain enough money from UK on their Tea , to buy enough food at present .
Sri Lanka should grow enough food for themselves and become food independent first .
Good leaders should plan and take care of their own people , Sri Lanka failed in this case .
I know what the democrats think about Jan 6, but what did the rest of the world think?
West is behind this as usual. Western media propaganda comes out in full force to over throw the government.
Coming soon to a country near you…
this will not solve your problems.

lndia will soon be the next Sri Lanka. lts foreign debt has reached a staggering $720 billion, far more than its forex reserve. lndian Rupee is on the verge of becoming toilet paper. Get your money out of lndia ASAP, before it's too late.
This is what democratic democracy looks like these days.
When Biden sees Shri Lanka, his Adam's apple gets a little stiff and he starts pulling at the collar.
Tyrants fall victim to the Superman complex. This an emotional thing and when played out looks like the little kid in the sandbox with his Superman doll. To keep their emotional state up and up, they meet in rooms and pat each other on the back, "It's okay, Joe, I know the people don't understand you. There, there, Joe, here's a hankie. I have a Linus blanket out in my car. " Poor Joe.
All currupt governments should watch this
Please take that knife 🔪 from that lion.

Do you believe Ranil ?? You decide!! Here are the facts !!
1.After the last election and almost a year later, Ranil entered through an national list as a single UNP MP.
2. While, Ranil was still MP, he claimed that Rajapaksaees should resign due to the economic crisis and political instability that he created.
3.Ranil, who has no mandate from people was appointed as prime minister by Gotha for many hidden reasons. As Ranil is an experienced politician, he knew Gotha's motive behind this appointed while others party leaders refused
4.Ranil warned Rajapaksaees using state of emergency against the Gall-face GOTHA GO HOME protesters. He also made a statement that he would withdraw all the advice and support
If the unnecessary state emergency was enforced. He supported the Gall-face GOTHA GO HOME protest until GOTHA was expelled. Ranil even publicly said this was a good thing happened to the country. He is a cunning fox.
5. Once, He was appointed by Gotha Rajapaksaees' party of group crooks MPs as president
6. Now, Ranil started telling the protesters were wrong to enter the Gotha's official residence.
7. Ranil Rajapaksaees, who supported peaceful protesters until the Gotha expelled. Ranil knew that, if the peaceful protesters had not entered the Gotha's official residence , Gotha and Rajapaksaees would have been still in the powers.
8. Ranil Rajapaksaee know that, peaceful protesters' main goal is to get rid of corrupted MPs and forming completely a new Government within peaceful and United Sri Lanka .
9. Ranil has no mandate to govern the people, is an illegitimate president, Ranil is Rajapaksaees' engine and controlled by Rajapaksaees group of crooks MPs as a presi
10.Ranil will not go for an immediate election, because he and Rajapaksaees group of crooks MPs definitely know by themselves they won't be re -elected.
11. What could happen during his time as a president, there is evey possibility that Rajapaksaees come back is alive.
