Russo-Ukrainian War | Causes | 2019–present Sri Lankan economic crisis

The repercussions of the ongoing tense situation between Ukraine and Russia due to the Russo-Ukrainian War is felt in the already sluggish economic conditions of Sri Lanka. The 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine has further exacerbated the economic calamity of the country as Russia is the second biggest market to Sri Lanka in tea exports and Sri Lanka's tourism sector is heavily reliant upon these two nations as most of the tourist arrivals are from Russia and Ukraine. As a result, the Ukrainian crisis has put a halt to the path of economic recovery of Sri Lanka with both tea and tourism sector have been hit hard.
