Sri Lanka PM Says Regaining EU’s GSP+ Is Victory For All

Sri Lanka receiving the EU’s GSP+ concession is not a victory of the good governance government, but of all the Sri Lankans, said Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe in a special statement.

In the statement, the premier said that the present government was able to regain the GSP+ concession as a result of the scarification it made during last two years to ensure the democracy of the country by protecting the people’s rights.

According to Wickremesinghe, the local manufactures including textile industry will receive wider access to the European Market and numerous new employment opportunities and incomes will be created inside the country.

Wickremesinghe also expressed his gratitude to those who were dedicated to regain the GSP+ concession to the country.
