President Anura Kumara Dissanayake has extended his appreciation to U.S. President Donald Trump for once again supporting Sri Lanka during a time of crisis.
The United States has pledged US$ 2 million in emergency relief assistance to aid Sri Lanka’s response to the devastation caused by Cyclone Ditwah, which brought widespread flooding and heavy rainfall across multiple regions.
In addition to financial aid, the U.S. has deployed two C-130J Super Hercules aircraft to bolster ongoing humanitarian and logistical operations.
President Dissanayake stated that the rapid deployment of aircraft, along with the emergency funding, demonstrates the strength of the long-standing relationship between the two nations — a partnership grounded in shared democratic values and deep ties between their people.
