COLOMBO (News 1st): UPFA MP Dayasiri Jayasekara commenting on the current situation of the country and the foreign forces involved in certain matters said that the governing of the country no more lies with the country. He continued to say that instead that when the Hambantota Port was handed over to China that the US and India had turned their backs on the country.
Jayasekara said that the situation had escalated when the port was given over to China on lease stating that when the power of Asia moves towards China that America gradually recedes. The parliamentarian pointed out that this situation is not an issue between the Sinhalese and the Muslims and said that instead, it is a clash between imperialists.
He further said that the United States wanted to reduce the effect that China had on the country and that when India took over Mattala airport that the US wanted Trincomalee. MP Dayasiri Jayasekara added that this is indeed an issue created by foreign forces because organizations like ISIS and Al-Quaeda were established by the CIA of the United States.
