LNP - Trump corrects AKD’s name

U.S. President Donald Trump has reposted his official letter to Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, after correcting a name error in the initial version that mistakenly referred to the President as “Aruna.” The amended letter, dated July 9, 2025, reaffirms the United States’ decision to impose a 30% tariff on Sri Lankan exports starting August 1. The move, according to President Trump, addresses what he described as “very persistent” tariff and non-tariff barriers maintained by Sri Lanka over the years.
