US Assistant Secretary Biswal to visit Sri Lanka

The US Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Nisha Biswal will be visiting Sri Lanka next week.

Ms Biswal, who will be accompanied by her deputy Manpreet Anand, will travel to Colombo where she will meet with senior government officials, political leaders, and civil society representatives to discuss bilateral economic cooperation as well as democratic governance and reconciliation, according to the State Department.

At the end of last month, the State Department's South and Central Asia bureau tweeted about Sri Lankan tea and its benefits for health and US-Sri Lanka trade relations.
