According to the "Daily Mirror" reported on the 18th, Sri Lanka President Laenier Wickermaxinha issued a special communique that day, announcing that Sri Lanka entered an emergency, and take effect now to prevent voting on the 20th of parliaments on the 20th. There was no turmoil before election.

The communiqué said that doing this is a measure of authority. Due to the public emergency situation of Sri Lanka, in order to public safety, protect the public order, and maintain the supplies and services that are vital to community life, according to Article 2 of the Public Security Regulations, Sri Lanka has entered a public emergency state from July 18.

Sri Lanka announced that it has entered an emergency

Due to the dilemma of Sri Lanka's economic crisis, the government's improper handling of deepening economic crisis, coupled with the continuous shortage of living essentials, often caused the public to go to the streets to protest and evolve into riots. Since April this year, Sri Lanka leaders have repeatedly announced that the country has entered an emergency. It seems that this has become the default state of the government's crisis.

Five days ago, after a number of government agencies such as the Prime Minister's Palace and the parliament were impacted by the public and caused riots, Vikra Masinger announced on the 13th that it would implement an emergency across the country and implement a curfew in Koronpo, the capital.

Mr. Zhang of Sri Lanka told Jimu Journalists, "The last curfew was to deal with the riots of the people. The president announced that the president announced that he entered the emergency state mainly for the next presidential election."

Mr. Zhang introduced that the current streets of Sri Lanka have been calm, and the restaurants he operate in the local area are also working normally.

Mr. Li, another Chinese, who is in Colombo, was interviewed by Jiomu Journalists, "It is still difficult to refuel in Colombo now, and the people will have a few kilometers.

On July 9, hundreds of thousands of protesters took the streets of Colombo and broke into the presidential official residence and office. Sri Lanka, then President Rajapaksa, left Sri Lanka and fled to Maldives, and then fled to Singapore.

On the 15th, the Prime Minister Victor Marinha became the acting president.

Sri Lanka Speaker Abvadner previously announced that the parliament will elected the new president on the 20th. The new president will be voted by 225 parliamentarians and will be responsible for the establishment of the government participating in each party.

Victor Marinha, who has been the prime minister six times, is one of the most promising competitors for full -time presidents, but he is also considered to be an ally of the former President Rajapaksa. The protesters asked him to step down.

In addition to Victormazhima, there are two highly watched presidential candidates: Sri Lanka opposition leader Sagite Prota Madasa, and a senior member of the ruling party of the cabinet spokesman Dallas Alah Peiru horse.
