tug of war between china and india. both competing for influence and 3 walker to really doesn't want that. it wants to have good relations with both china and india, but here and benefit from this competition because both china and india are trying to outdo each other to provide assistance to just re locker and india had provide a significant package chide and they provide some assistance as well, but it's quite remarkable. if you look at the competition a few months ago, china got into an argument with bangladesh over having to pay for fertilizer shipments that had gone bad. and right when that was happening, that was playing out. india swooped in incentives own shipment of new fresh fertilizer, just re like a few see just how sharp that competition between india and china is in playing out in 3 longer. it would be wrong to say that you know, chinese loans or why 3 walkers in the vehicle on the crisis. i would argue that you have to look at many years of economic management by the 3. why can government go

back to the end of the civil war in 2009? because the state had to rebuild. so it per, it needed to reconstruct the need to get infrastructure law and took on a lot of loans from the outside. that it couldn't, that it couldn't pay off, so it got heavily indebted then. then you had a situation, 2019 where the 3 law and government taxes and that left the government with not enough revenue. when the 10 demik arrived and the government kept spending very heavily during the can't even know and that led to a currency depreciation. it banned chemical fertilizer in 2021 that led to left foreign meals. so the bottom line is that you have to look if you're looking at the reasons for this another meltdown. you shouldn't be looking at what china is, but you should be looking at what the sri lankan government or government has done for many years to bring this this country to this very troubling point that at that right now, argentine is government is also seen a rising tide of protest as it struggles to reign in poverty and ramp and inflation
