It is indeed one of the best professional Geo-political discussions, with facts about India-Sri Lanka's historical relationship, democracies, constitution, debts, and the resilience of Srilankans.Hats off to Ambassador Sinha, who is very familiar and honest in his deliberations.
Been a Sri Lankan i thank you for a honest and constructive conversation regarding our country. Our country was blessed by baudha during his visits to lanka. During covid time everyone thought that when Delta variant hit india where lots of people died, most expected that it will make havoc in SL. But luckily it was not bad as everyone thought. As you said we are a resilient nation, we have faced similar or much worst situations during our long history. We will rise strong once again to show the world our commitment by the help of india which we have a very strong historical bond.
Siddhartha Gautama did not come from "India". He came from Maha Magadha, not even Maha Bharat. Today's India stands 100% for the values that Gautama Buddha stood against.
What support? It was a shady deal that forced us to buy Indian goods using loaned funds and pay interest on top of that for substandard medicine they shipped
The way he speaks is very gentlemanly. The other thing is that he has a good study and knowledge about Sri Lanka. Such distinguished diplomats are a boon for India.
With the leadership of our present president, the ties between Sri Lanka and India will grow stronger and stronger. It is a matter if mutual understanding and respect. We thank India for all the help given to us during times of crisis. And as our president assured during his visit to India, Sri Lanka under this government will make sure that there is no threat to India from Sri lankan soul. Long live the friendship between our two countries.
I really enjoyed watching this video! It’s very well-educating, and I appreciate the effort in presenting accurate and unbiased facts. As Sri Lankans, we have immense love and respect for India, its rich culture, and the deep bond shared between our countries. This video highlights important truths that resonate with mutual respect and understanding. Keep up the great work!"
JVP wasn’t anti India . They were only against the anti Sri Lanka policy maintained by Indian Government in 1980s. India changed its policy after Rajiv Gandhi assassination and JVP changed their stance accordingly.
@@ensys1000 They were against the Indira Congress at that time, She had hegemonic ambitions, So obviously the JVP was against the threat to Sri Lanka’s sovereignty
@@ensys1000 YES Of cz.. if the current india remained on the same policies we are still opposing for sure ..! .u cant just blindly blv on international friendships
The anchor's discussion with the guest conveyed a positive impression of AKD's visit, discussions, and speech to the audience. As rightly stated by the former ambassador, Sri Lanka remained within the bounds of democracy, adhering to its constitution, despite the challenges created by previous governments, without succumbing to external interference. Once again, this is a great discussion 👍
As a Srilankan we acknowledge our Brothers from Bharat India is slowly becoming a respected global superpower It will be well within our interest to strengthen ties with our Neighbor Rather than selling out to China
JVP was never anti-indian but was against the weak administrations who manipulated both indian relationship and Sri Lankan public to fill their bank accounts
Glad to listen this clear, pragmatic and progressive discussion that articulate the brighter side of developing the relationship between Sri Lanka and India and well wishes to Mr. Yash Sinha from Sri Lanka. I would like to add a particular fact that we Sri Lankans would like Indians to think about and act accordingly. We don’t think there’s a Tamil rights issue in Sri Lanka. If there’s an issue regarding Tamils, well India also face the same scenario. And that’s non other than the separatist mindset of the Tamil people in both the countries. Either it’s Tamilnadu or Sri Lankan Tamil dominated regions, same doctrine is going on. So the Government of India should not push us into empowering 13th amendment, police and sovereign powers to specifically Tamils which Sri Lanka dislikes to the core. The Indian government should shed the idea of pushing Sri Lanka into this pit for the sake of pleasing the racially biased Tamilians in Tamilnadu which in return will tarnish the good relationship between our both countries. If we are to ensure our support to India’s security interests, India also have the moral obligation not to put Sri Lanka in this uncomfortable situation.
The President of Sri Lanka n NPP govt is Very Honest Educated n Deeply loving to the Peoples of Sri Lanka, There Zero Tolerance policy towads the Corruptions n Transparent foreign Policy will be assured the regional Security (Sagar ) n the friendly atmosphere wt India & Internationally .. Thanks Great India for the invitation to Our Dear Hon President for the first official visit, out of his office.. ❤❤❤
This a very constructive and educating discussion. I personally rate this more than wion, firstpost or any other hyped channel. Very balanced and clearly explained.
I was privileged & blessed enough to meet his excellency mr sinha back in 2006. I personally hold great respect towards this gentleman. While on his tenure in sri lanka he was engaged in a lot of social activities & charity. He gave a lot to the public. As a sri lankan im always grateful to president modhi & the people of india who has always stood with us through tough times. Jai hind. 🇮🇳 may the indo sri lanka bond cherish in the years to come. ❤
So nice to see, very simple and young president of Sri Lanka, Loan ridden countries elite Presidents & PM to take lesson from Sri-Lankan President, no inferity❤❤❤
As a sri lankan, JVP is anti India? no it wasn't against India per say (as palki from firstpost try to say), it was the occupation of indian army to support the unpopular corrupt president in 1980s. It's important to be open minded about subtle narratives, sometimes there's more to the story beyond the headline. Also we accepted the free trade agreement. We rejected ETCA because India and SL are two counties which has over supply of human capital. It was wise to forgone. India n SL don't have a shortage of doctors, lawyers, IT people (professionals - which ETCA focussed on.) Again thank you India for being a great neighbor for the most part of history.
One of the main topics that the jvp was based on since the beginning was indian expansionism right? I mean it was quite highlighted in recent election talks as well. That unpopular corrupt president introduced sri lanka to the open economy, even prior to india which we were unable to continue thereafter, had ruled the country in most chaotic times of sri lanka, had sort of balanced all the foreign powers and moreover had implemented a constitution which was powerful enough to protect the democracy at any unstable periods. Ofc his rule was brutal but not much as the terrorist organisation called jvp.
I am a Sri Lanken and in my opinion if it is not in win win situation and it is more advantage to India any agreement in any way, most of SRI LANKAN or the present ruling party would not be happy about it. The mistake the former vastly corrupt two ruling parties,they never mindful about it and that is why Sri Lankan people felt fear in indian involvements in reslolving the problems of Sri Lanka.
Agree with you 💯 . We need to see the development and re-establishment by our own feet without relying on anyother county. Non of these politicians love Sri Lanka. All of them are betraying the country.
Yes we love India our relationship is 2500 years old and it’s skin deep, king Ashoka the noble leader was so kind in sending Buddhism to us.., in the new world order we need to find common benefit’s and build win win bridges.
The Indians have successfully convinced AKD that he is a sage. In believing so, he has unleashed the Indians unto Sri Lanka, despite utterances is stark contrast during his political campaign. There are no win- win games in international politics. AKD has been hoodwinked.
India is dreaming for joint statement & Sri Lankan never allow to build bridge, pipe line or any sort of connection between two countries. NPP government n people in Sri Lanka clearly know Indian government is behind most of Sri Lankan political, economical & civil issues, including 36 years war & Easter attack. We are Sri Lanka will fight till die not to attach Sri Lanka n India. Even now Tamil people are with government & India government know it clearly, that’s why still funding old politicians to make some racism & divisions between religion.
That’s right Sri Lankan knows how this big country who has double face always trying to interfere to sri lankan issues. No one wants in sri lanka to build a bridge or pipeline to India. Sri lankan Government knows that if they agree to do such thing they have to go home before end of their time period. All people in sri lanka looks carefully with this agreement. If they agreed to build a bridge it will be anura kumara’s last day as a president in sri lanka
There are no two words of India's help in Srilankas development. Only help Srilanka by helping them eradicate corruption. Just a small correction that not all are from the JVP. For instance, our PM is from NPP and not from JVP. Regardless of party all the people should join hands in its development.
😢😢😢 When China, the world's only superpower, abruptly blacklisted Sri Lanka's Government Commercial Bank, it reflected a lack of confidence in the capabilities of Sri Lankan intellectualism. In contrast, it was India and Bangladesh that provided financial support to Sri Lanka unconditionally, helping the nation to thrive.😅😅🎉
Fine discussion and agree with most. But isn’t the use of word ‘Red Line’ a bit coercive ? As a seasoned diplomat should have used measured language. Especially when the president of SL has given a guarantee that Sri Lanka will not be used for something against India’s security.
Most hopefully we believe this new gov., and prez will not create insecurity, anxiety with false promises to the country and international community, specially with regard to India and China, since they have clear direction, principles and fairness.
I think the relationship between India and Sri Lanka is in very healthy situation now after Mrs Indira Ghandi and Mrs Sirimavo Bandaranayake before 1977. But the first executive president J R Jayawardene totally neglected India and went to west but failed as LTTE uprising against his government. Mr Jayawardane was ruthless and was called Sri Lanka’s Hitler.
Oh healthy during the sirimavo regime? Don't forget how the indira government sponsored the ltte. And ofc both of them were followers of the soviets right?
Jvp and most of sri lankan have no anti indian opinion, but they have nationalism thoughts and if any external matters affected to their pathway they stand against them. It can be china, usa, india or any other country.
😮😮😢😢 For Sri Lanka it is critically important that Indian Navy is deployed to protect Indian and Sri Lankan Sea Borders 24x7x365 as a joint operation with Sri Lankan Navy. India should not pressurize Sri Lanka to release Indian Fisherman if Indian Navy failed to stop them going into Sri Lankan Waters.
Few distictions need to be made: Policies made in tbe past by any country need to be evaluated in the context of the time, background factors opearational, which leader with what policies at the time, which economic climate, etc. Also wvery country is pro that country which is normal and a must. It does not mean it is anti others. Then you negotiate, always practical, pragmatic and pro your country. This binary thinking , black and white thinking is a bit primary level in a complex world.
Sri lanka should be encouraged by what India did to go from a Socialist economy to free open market capitalism. History is proof of the success. Sri Lanka, open your eyes and mind to what works. Gave the book " Road to Serfdom" by Hayek to the great grand-son of Sri Lanka's first President . I am not sure he read the book of the Noble Prize winning author ????
😢😢 But While the original Lumbini is located in Nepal, India has adopted the same name and associated cultural elements of Buddhism to present a cohesive narrative that includes Hinduism, Christianity, and Buddhism within its borders. This situation highlights the need for India to demonstrate greater maturity and diplomacy in its foreign affairs, rather than appropriating unique cultural, social, and religious values from its neighbors. Furthermore, there is a concern regarding the rights of female artists from Sri Lanka, such as Jacqueline and Yohani, who face challenges in stealing their patents and distribution rights in India, thru Amithab B..😢
Sri Lanka is the true friend, neighbor, brother of India. Look at maldives, bangaladesh, pakistan. They are not like Sri Lanka. See te hypocrisy of bangaladesh. India sacrifice a lot fir the freedom of bangaladesh. But ultimatrly they show their real face. But Sri Lanka never do a hypocrite thing to India. Yes there are some issues like tamilnadu fisherman vioting sea of Sri Lanka. but it can be solve peacefully rather it is a individual case
Why Nepal show back to India.. the reason is due to losing their economic and energy sovereignty due to indian influence. perticularly supply of energy dominance by Adhani.
