India Out of Colombo Sample Clauses

India Out of Colombo. Terminal Project Why in news? Sri Lanka decided to overturn tripartite agreement to develop Colombo‘s East Container Terminal. What is the importance of this project? • This project was a key marker for infrastructure investment in the Sri Lanka, where Chinese projects are most prominent. • More than 2/3rd of trans-shipment at this port is tied to India, making it an important trade and connectivity link. • Joint venture between India and Japan to invest in the ECT project provides South Asia with viable and sustainable alternatives for financing and development. Why was this project overturned? • This was due to growing pressure from port union groups which opposed any foreign participation. • It is worrying that whether the country will honour the commitments made by the previous government. • Also there is suspicion that there is a Chinese hand behind this decision & it is curious that despite Sri Lanka‘s financial difficulties it took this decision upsetting donors. How has India responded to this? • It continues to engage Sri Lanka on the ECT issue but it remains silent on Colombo‘s alternative offer of developing the West Container Terminal. • Over the past years, Indian government has invested much time and resources Sri Lanka- new credit line, currency swap agreement, COVID-19 assistance and vaccines. • NSA Xxxx Xxxxx and EAM S. Xxxxxxxxxx have visited Colombo more than once and Xx. Xxxx has hosted President Xxxxxxxx and Prime Minister Xxxxxxx. • India has also set much store by its partnership with Japan as a counter to China‘s BRI & there is much at stake for all three countries to derail the partnership. • A compromise formula to restore a deal needs to be arrived.
