China has expressed sincere hope that all sectors in Sri Lanka can bear in mind the fundamental interests of the country and people and overcome difficulties to restore stability, revitalise the economy and improve livelihoods, at an early date.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin in response to a question from The Hindu on whether China was considering responding to Sri Lankan requests for financial aid and if talks were ongoing, declined to say if Beijing was preparing assistance.
He said “China is ready to work with relevant countries and relevant institutions to help Sri Lanka achieve sustainable development and overcome the current difficulties”.
