斯里兰卡寻求中国40亿美元的援助

Sri Lanka is continuing negotiations with China for as much as $4 billion in aid. Colombo is asking China for a loan of $1 billion to repay an equivalent amount of Chinese debt coming due this year. Sri Lanka is also seeking a $1.5 billion credit line to pay for Chinese imports and activation of a $1.5 billion swap.

斯里兰卡正在继续与中国谈判，争取多达40亿美元的援助。科伦坡正要求中国提供10亿美元的贷款，以偿还今年即将到期的同等数额的中国债务。斯里兰卡还在寻求15亿美元的信贷额度，以支付中国的进口，并启动15亿美元的互换计划。
