Sri Lankan Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe on Saturday said his government has addressed New Delhi's security concerns over the newly- modified USD 1.5 billion Colombo Port City project. "There is no question of security problem. The Indian security issues have been addressed by us. There will be further discussions with India" on this, Wickremesinghe told the media in Beijing wrapping up his four-day visit during which he held talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang.
"We have discussed with India also. We are prepared to discuss it further," he said answering a volley of questions about USD eight billion Chinese investments including the Port City project made during former Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa's regime, which sparked off security concerns in India. Wickremesinghe also said he has embarked on China visit after holding talks with Rajapaksa and former President Chandrika Kumaratunga to build consensus.
