The "state bankruptcy" economic crisis has continued to intensify

Sri Lanka's economic crisis has been approaching for nearly a year. The local inflation rate soared to 54.6%in June, and food prices increased sharply by 80%. It is expected that the inflation rate will rise to 70%in the next few months.

Over the past few months, Sri Lanka has faced the problems of high prices, tight power supply, food and drugs and other necessities. The authorities issued the remaining people in addition to the employees of important positions such as medical care on the 17th of last month. The local area was suspended at the end of last month to sell fuel to the public, providing fuel for public transport and medical basic services. The school suspension time was also extended to deal with the crisis of fuel shortage.

Sri Lanka Prime Minister Vikramaxa said to Parliament last week that "the country has bankruptcy" and said that the unprecedented economic crisis "will last at least until the end of 2023".

On March 25, Coronapo, the capital of Sri Lanka, lined up to buy fuel.

Political uncertainty increases IMF negotiations affected

At present, Sri Lanka is negotiating with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), hoping to seek $ 3 billion in rescue funds, and at the same time negotiate debt reorganization with foreign creditors.

However, Prime Minister Vikramainha acknowledged that, as a "bankruptcy country" instead of developing countries, negotiations with the IMF have been difficult. Analysis states that the President of Sri Lanka's steps down to exacerbate political uncertainty may further affect the negotiations between Sri Lanka and the IMF.

The analysis also believes that the situation in Sri Lanka is chaotic and whether the formation of a new government can be questioned. Political analyst Perera said that the details of the transfer of power in Sri Lanka were still uncertain, and the resignation of the Presidential Prime Minister was likely to cause "dangerous power real vacuum period." Although the Speaker can appoint the new government, it remains to be observed whether it can be accepted by the public.
