Social Comment: For the Sri Lanka crisis, the West should not have "distorted excitement"

On the 9th, the Sri Lanka President's residence was rushed by thousands of protesters, and President Rajapaka said he would resign on the 13th. The Prime Minister Vikramaxa also said that once the multi -party government is preparing to take over, he will resign immediately. However, the replacement of the regime will resolve the Sri Lanka economic and social crisis, which will last more than half a year, and is still a large question mark.

This South Asian island country with a population of 22 million faces a record of inflation, fuel, food and medical shortage, and people's livelihood has fallen into a great dilemma. The Sri Lankan administration has previously announced "bankruptcy" and has become the first country to default in foreign debt since the century. In addition to the situation in Sri Lanka, people are still concerned about another question: Will there be the next "bankruptcy", who will it be?

In just a few years, Sri Lanka's high -income country in South Asia to today is undoubtedly the result of the comprehensive effect of internal and external internal and external. One of the two major causes is the new crown pneumonia's epidemic, which severely damages the tourism industry as the Sri Lankan economic pillar. From the perspective of internal causes, Sri Lanka has launched relatively radical agricultural and economic policies in the past few years, making it difficult to resist the impact of external factors.

It can be seen that the economy such as Sri Lanka's economy to largely rely on foreign exchange income to resist global economic risks is fragile. "Bankruptcy" is caused by various factors comprehensive fermentation. However, the United States uses its own international discourse advantage. Relying on "many speakers, loud sound", the board deliberately hit the board on the "debt trap", and the smearing attack was China "dug a debt trap for Sri Lanka."

I have to say that some Western countries in the United States have a interest in using the Sri Lanka crisis to carry out geopolitical manipulation, which is far higher than the willingness to send real gold and silver to Sri Lanka to send charcoal in Sri Lanka. They are not anxious, but distorted excitement to Sri Lanka's eyes in the crisis.

Sri Lanka has been scarred and cannot withstand the pressure and cost of becoming a geopolitical competition. Many responsible research reports have repeatedly stated that the current debt crisis of Sri Lanka is not directly related to the infrastructure investment subsidized by China. The bilateral bilateral debt of China accounts for 10%of the total US debt repayment of Sri Lanka. The commercial creditors and multilateral financial institutions of Western countries are the big heads of Sri Lanka's foreign debt. The role of the marrow. Therefore, accusing China of dug the "debt trap" is completely discredited, thereby attacking the "Belt and Road" initiative even more untenable.

With Sri Lanka's experience, it is even urgent to see that the development dilemma of some developing countries has been eliminated. Imagine that if Sri Lanka has gradually formed its own economic "hematopoietic system" and facing a harsh economic environment, the ability to resist risks will be stronger. In fact, this has also become the consensus of more and more countries. As of the end of May 2022, China has signed more than 200 "Belt and Road" cooperation documents with 150 countries and 32 international organizations, which has effectively proved that the direction of cooperation and development is correct.

In this regard, Washington also knows. From the previous plan of the Trump administration's "Blue Dot Plan", claiming to promote the construction of high -quality infrastructure in the region. By June 2021, the Bayeng government proposed the "rebuilding a better world" initiative. The G7 summit announced that it will raise about $ 600 billion to carry out global infrastructure investment and construction, which has actually proven this. Strengthening infrastructure and enhancing internal vitality is the true key to solve the dilemma of development. However, because the "Belt and Road" emphasizes cooperation and co -construction instead of the United States, some people in the West tried their best to pour dirty water and destruction.

At the moment of the global economy entering the crisis, the word "development" highlights the valuable value than gold. The "national bankruptcy" crisis facing Sri Lanka is essentially caused by global development deficits and governance deficits. The "fire on the fire" of the regional security crisis in the United States has exacerbated the global development crisis. Not only can it not solve the problems they want to solve, but in the environment that worsens the international community to solve the problem.

We sincerely hope that some countries in the West can start from basic humanitarianism to restrain the geopolitical impulse of their competition in the great powers. Give some space for conscience and develop some time.
