NEW DELHI (Reuters) – Sri Lanka must look to restructure a $1 billion international sovereign bond maturing in July, said Ali Sabry, who recently submitted his resignation as finance minister amid a massive economic crisis.
Sabry told parliament the country should seek a financial bailout, debt moratorium or some other means to address the crisis. It was not immediately clear if President Gotabaya Rajapaksa had accepted his resignation sent on Tuesday.
