Light-years measure distance, not speed. (He has a BSc in Physics?) Sri Lanka is an INDEPENDENT country located in the Indian Ocean, not part of the (nonexistent) Indian continent. Cyberattacks are worse than nuclear attacks?? (Seriously?) Words matter, especially when you’re the President of Sri Lanka.

Landmark agreement will open the doors for investors to consider investment opportunities in the two countries.
I signed a landmark Reciprocal Promotion and Protection of Investments Agreement with Mohamed Bin Hadi Al Hussaini, UAE's Minister of State for Financial Affairs, during President Anura Kumara Dissanayake’s visit to the UAE for the World Governments Summit 2025. This agreement paves the way for enhanced economic cooperation, investor protection, and expanded trade opportunities, reinforcing Sri Lanka’s commitment to attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and strengthening global economic partnerships. A step forward in fostering sustainable investments and financial collaboration between Sri Lanka and the UAE.

**A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Global Partners** To our friends and partners across the world, Today, I share a message of profound gratitude and hope on behalf of Sri Lanka. Our journey to economic recovery has been incredibly challenging, but your unwavering support and cooperation have made a world of difference. To India, the Paris Club, Japan, China, and all non-Paris Club members, thank you for your steadfast commitment. Your agreement to our debt restructuring plan unlocked vital IMF facilities. Now, with the recent agreements to restructure our bilateral debts, we are confidently on the path to restoring our debt sustainability. This remarkable progress reflects your friendly and cooperative spirit. Your solidarity during our darkest hours has provided a beacon of hope for all Sri Lankans. Your partnership is helping us build a stronger and more resilient economy. From the depths of our hearts, we extend our sincere thanks for your continued support and belief in our future. Together, we are transforming Sri Lanka’s destiny and fostering a brighter tomorrow. With heartfelt gratitude 🙏

On this 15th anniversary of a pivotal moment in our nation's history, we celebrate the restoration of peace in Sri Lanka. While this is a time to reflect on our journey, we must also acknowledge that deep divisions still persist among our diverse communities. True reconciliation requires more than the absence of violence; it demands empathy, respect, and a commitment to understanding each other. As we reflect on this day, let us renew our efforts to bridge these divides. By embracing our differences and celebrating our rich cultural diversity, we can build a united and prosperous Sri Lanka. Together, with solidarity and a shared vision for our future, we can overcome mistrust and lay the foundation for lasting peace. True reconciliation is not a one-time event but a continuous process that requires give and take from all sides. We must listen with open hearts, engage in meaningful dialogue, and act with empathy. It's through understanding and respecting each other’s perspectives that we can foster mutual respect and trust. As we move forward, let us not forget the importance of compassion and compromise. Every step we take towards each other is a step towards a stronger, more unified nation. By working together, we can ensure that the legacy of this day is not just the end of conflict, but the beginning of a truly inclusive and harmonious Sri Lanka. I have always believed in and advocated for a common Sri Lankan identity. Let us come together, not just as individuals from various communities, but as one nation, to unlock the true potential of our beloved country. #SriLanka #Unity #Reconciliation #Diversity #Peace #Empathy #TogetherWeCanWin
