Britain’s King Charles III has extended his wishes to Anura Kumara Dissanayake on his election as Sri Lanka’s President, wishing him every possible success in guiding Sri Lanka at this important time.
King Charles also expressed hope to see the already close relationship between England and Sri Lanka deepen further under the new presidency.
“As C.O.P.29 approaches, I hope that our countries can work together as partners and as members of the modern Commonwealth, to protect our oceans, conserve biodiversity, and tackle climate risks,” he said.
King Charles’ message was conveyed in a letter to President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, which was handed over to the latter by the British High Commissioner to Sri Lanka, Andrew Patrick. (Newswire)
