Foreign nations attempting to destabilize the country : Samantha Vidyaratne

COLOMBO (News 1st) -  JVP Uva Provincial Councillor, Samantha Vidyaratne noted that following the Easter Sunday attacks, Sri Lanka could be under the threat of foreign intelligence service invasions. He noted that geographically, Sri Lanka has always been a vital location for powerful nations in the world and throughout history, several powerful nations attempted to manipulate Sri Lanka to their advantage. Councillor noted that the Easter Sunday attack is an ideal opportunity for powerful foreign nations to discreetly invade the country and plant their seeds of intelligence services, disguised as allies and harm the integrity of the country and breach the national security network ultimately leading to chaos. He stressed that although several countries issued travel advisory and dubbed Sri Lanka as a "high-risk zone", Sri Lanka did not instruct against visiting those countries when they were attacked by terrorists. According to the councillor, these are tactics to economically destabilize and render Sri Lanka helpless paving the way to drive Sri Lanka into the position of a puppet.
