“ODC’s Sea Vision third phase training concludes successfully” …. in Ceylon Today, 4 July 2022 ….https://ceylontoday.lk/2022/07/04/odcs-sea-vision-third-phase-training-concludes-successfully/
AN EDITORIAL QUERY
The landing and refuelling of Sri Lankan Airline planes in southern India, surely, were (and are) sheer necessities and an useful shoulder of support in the present circumstances. I would like to see Darini’s logic and line of argument on this point.

I agree with you Michael. Darini’s claims here go well beyond what is fair and reasonable. I see no evidence whatsoever that Quad are trying to colonialize Sri Lanka. It’s nonsense.
We need to avoid making speculative claims without solid evidence, and combine evidence with logic to support an argument or claims.
USA has sanctions & trading blockades against Russia as well as Iran. So anyone who buys goods from Iran or Russia cannot transport them to their buyers via the sea or air, without being intercepted by the US Navy or Air Force. This trading blockade unfortunately affects Sri Lanka as well., although the blockade is not directed at us.
