The decision was welcomed by both Party Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe and Chairman Vajira Abeywardene today.

Mr. Wickremesinghe on Thursday said it was a prudent decision by the government to seek IMF assistance.

“We are happy about the decision made by President Gotabaya Rajapaksa to seek IMF assistance, even if it had come late,” Mr. Abeywardene said today while addressing a party gathering in Galle.
