Former President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has arrived in Thailand today (August 11) evening from Singapore.
A condition for Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s stay in Thailand is that he should not cause problems for the country.
Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha on Wednesday confirmed a temporary visit to Thailand by the 73-year-old embattled Sri Lankan leader for humanitarian reasons, and said he promised not to conduct political activities in the kingdom during his search for permanent asylum in another country.
After fleeing to the Maldives on July 13, Gotabaya then flew to Singapore, where he announced his resignation a day later after months of protests over Sri Lanka’s unprecedented economic crisis.
