Ambassador Francovigh met with H.E. President Anura Kumara Dissanayake last Friday along with European colleagues.<\/p>\n
The meeting provided an opportunity to explore themes of cooperation between Sri Lanka, the European Union, and EU Member States. The EU is the second largest destination market for Sri Lankan goods and one of the main regions for foreign tourists, and it hosts a large Sri Lankan diaspora. The European side emphasized its readiness to work with the new Government to further strengthen bilateral ties in all possible areas of collaboration.<\/p>\n
