Sri Lamka population = 22 Million people....Sri Lanka’s also has had monster external debt arising from their persistent trade deficits...$60 billion debt.
How can they ever repay their debt since they don’t have goods to offer that
their creditor nations want to buy?

It appears Sri Lanka is yet another debtor nation.
