Sri Lanka's protests reach 100th day having forced one president from office and now turning its sights on his successor
Sri Lanka's protest movement reached its 100th day having forced one president from office and now turning its sights on his successor as the country's economic crisis continues.
United by economic hardships, minority Tamils and Muslims joined the majority Sinhalese to demand the ouster of the once-powerful Rajapaksa clan. Under Sri Lanka's constitution, Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe was automatically installed as acting president following Rajapaksa's resignation, and is now the leading candidate to succeed him permanently in a parliamentary vote next week.
