History repeats at the #WashingtonHilton. President #DonaldTrump survived an attempted attack at the same venue where President #RonaldReagan was shot in 1981.

What if ancient statecraft could explain today’s Middle East?

This piece connects the Arthashastra to Iran’s evolving diplomatic strategy.

Sri Lanka's EEZ is only upto 200 nautical miles. However, SL has a legal and scientific claim under Article 76 of UNCLOS to extend it's EEZ to upto 600 nautical miles. This would give SL Natural Gas deposits. Claim was made in 2009, but recently India objects to it.

Fun fact :- 🇱🇰 Sri Lanka may be a small island on land,

🌍 But Sri Lanka actually controls more of Earth’s surface than Germany , Bangladesh & South Korea 🇩🇪 🇧🇩 🇰🇷

SL has 600,000 km² of earth's surface under its control.almost the size of Ukraine.

Where is the talent!? Where is the passion!? Absolute aimless playing! No competent players other than Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis. Wellalage is at least promising. High time Dasun Shanaka retires. SL cricket is too polluted with Politics. #SLvsNZ #MMEB

It's fascinating to see the similarities between the Lion in the Sri Lankan flag and the Lion in the flag of the Persian Empire.

As President RW begins his address to the nation declaring an end to Sri Lanka's bankrupt state, fireworks are going off in several places in Colombo and other districts of the island.

Anyone who claims that their political party does no wrong and the other party does no right is either a liar, a fool or both.

Iran is one of the top five tea-importing countries from Sri Lanka. The Iranian President will soon visit Sri Lanka to inaugurate the Uma Oya Multipurpose Project, which was previously delayed for many years due to JVP-led obstruction. Sri Lanka and Iran maintain a strong bilateral friendship.

Efforts to prevent Houthis from attacking ships help to avoid rerouting, thereby reducing costs and delays for goods upon which the world depends. This cooperation benefits the entire world, including Sri Lanka.

I have minimised my efforts to debunk JVP/NPP’s claims, as it seems foolish to dignify their nonsense with any interaction. I understand why their supporters are now left alone to continue spreading their usual rubbish and filth. They are single-handedly proving themselves unworthy of even managing a piggy bank, let alone leading a country; therefore, there is nothing to debunk. Also, it is quite embarrassing to be even indirectly linked to them through attempts at debunking.

I reluctantly agreed to give my two cents on Bimal’s tweet after a few people requested my opinion.

Not really happy about our win, but I'm really proud for the Dutch Team.

Obsessed with Robert Knox's "An Historical Relation of the Island Ceylon". You can really feel how life was back in the Kingdom days through his eyes.
