’’This is not the time to crack down on citizens’’; Julie Chung tells Ranil

US Ambassador to Sri Lanka Julie Chung said she met with President Ranil Wickremesinghe to express her grave concern over the unnecessary and deeply troubling escalation of violence against protesters overnight.

 
She said the President and the cabinet have an opportunity and an obligation to respond to the calls of Sri Lankans for a better future.

"This is not the time to crack down on citizens, but instead to look ahead at the immediate and tangible steps the Government can take to regain the trust of the people, restore stability, and rebuild the economy," she tweeted.
