Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, who arrived here on Tuesday on a four-day visit, will hold talks with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping on Wednesday after which the two sides are expected to sign agreements, officials said.
Upon his arrival, the president was accorded a ceremonial welcome by the Chinese military, and he was formally received by China’s Deputy Foreign Minister Chen Xiaodong, according to a press release issued by Dissanayake’s office in Colombo.
This is Dissanayake’s second overseas visit — the first being to India — since assuming office in September last year.
