Officials in the South Asian nation, where Russians and Ukrainians have fled the war in Ukraine, said they were canceling long-term tourist visa extensions amid public fury over the event.
The party may be over for thousands of Russian tourists who moved to Sri Lanka amid the war in Ukraine.
Authorities in the South Asian island nation said this week they were canceling long-term tourist visa extensions — a move that coincides with outrage over what appeared to be a “whites only” event organized by a Russian-run nightclub in a popular resort town.
But the debt-stricken island’s president raised doubts over whether his government would go through with the cancellations, which would threaten a much-needed source of tourist income.
Yes, the ultimate conundrum. There’s a bunch of fascists here, we should remove them. On the other hand, MONEY!
Demonizing all Russian citizens as being fascists is certainly a take…
For the record I fully support Sri Lanka here but I’m not gonna act like an entire country supports their dictator when I know that’s not true
Ah, it’s okay to go to a white only party in Sri Lanka if you support democracy (for some people)
You might want to consider actually reading the article.
I did read the article. It’s not just the racists whose visas are on the line
I mean, most Americans here had Trump as their leader.
And if they went to a whites only party in Sri Lanka I’d support their tourist visa extensions being cancelled.
What’s the confusion here?
