The Sri Lankan political class with the wealthy behind them imposed a vicious Covid lockdown on the people of Sri Lanka. It turns out now that information is being revealed that Sri Lanka's political elite and wealthy used the lockdown to rob Sri Lanka blind. It is being reported that something like $20 billion has gone missing and has gone into the bank accounts of politicians and the ruling elite and their friends, families and cronies. This was apparently done with the approval of the Chinese CCP that provided a security force for the Sri Lankan ruling elite in return for a massive container port deal being constructed in the Port of Colombo by the Chinese.
Not only this but Sri Lanka has been cut off from receiving fertilizer and this has subsequently collapsed agriculture in Sri Lanka. Now Sri Lanka cannot meet its balance of payment agreements because of the "green agenda" preventing Sri Lankans from buying necessities. One of those necessities is gas used for cooking. The "green agenda" has economically and financially crippled Sri Lanka cutting Sri Lankans off from gas, oil and fuel along with food production while $20 billion disappears. This in turn is forcing the President of Sri Lanka Rajapaksa to resign while the UK issues a travel warning to not travel to Sri Lanka.
This has all culminated in this...
