Brief introduction to the (conflict\/crisis\/evolving) situation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka is an island nation in the Indian Ocean Region. The island nation has recently witnessed economic chaos as it defaulted on its foreign debt to credit agencies and governments such as China. Political turmoil soon followed the economic collapse as the former PM Mahinda Rajapaksa stepped away from power due to widespread protests. Residents are facing power outages and are heavily affected due to rising prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
