Sri Lanka is a model case for the sick neocolonialism the West is implementing in developing countries. Even worse, the US and Europe even have the gall to accuse China of exactly the malevolent practices that they have been implementing forever. Hypocrisy is reaching a new fever pitch.

To prevent Sri Lanka from pivoting anywhere else but into the US security fold, the West has tapped into local grievances and is with its unforgiving posture on Sri Lankan debt causing immense pain and regime change.

Dr. Asoka Bandarage is a Sri Lankan academic specialising in international development, political economy, conflict analysis and more. She taught at Yale, Mount Holyoke, Georgetown, and other universities in the US and abroad.

Her latest book is “Crisis in Sri Lanka and the World” in which she analyses colonial and neoliberal origins of Sri Lanka’s woes, arguing that the same mechanisms keep much of the developing world in a state of poverty and constant internal struggle. Dr. Bandarage also wrote an excellent short article for neutralitystudies.com, in which she summarises the issues of her book.The link will be below.
