Sri Lanka continues its dialogue with Russia on possible purchases of oil and gas, Sri Lankan Transport Minister Bandula Gunawardana told Sputnik in an interview.
“Sri Lanka does not buy oil from Russia yet, however, this is to be discussed with the Ministry of Petroleum.
I think we can get some win-win situation. Relevant authorities will discuss this with Russia,” Gunawardana said.
The minister added that Sri Lankan Ambassador to Russia Janitha Liyanage was still negotiating a previously requested loan for purchasing fuel with the Russian government.
