What next for Sri Lanka?

On Day 3 of the Presidential palace siege in Colombo, protesters are still adamant. They are demanding the resignations of the PM and President.

Meanwhile, the PM Office said that President Rajapaksa has officially conveyed to Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe that he will resign on July 13 as previously announced.

Sri Lanka's political parties have initiated steps to form an all-party government and subsequently elect a new President on July 20 to prevent the bankrupt nation sliding further into anarchy.
