Snippet: With the ongoing conflict in the Middle East (ME), Sri Lanka finds itself at a particularly vulnerable juncture as it carefully navigates a fragile economic recovery. Labour migration offers jobs to counteract the lack of opportunities within the economy. Related micro-level remittances prevent households from dipping back into poverty. Similarly, on a macro level, these remittances, of which about 50% come from ME countries, help build foreign reserves, stabilise the economy, and pay for much-needed imports.

Snippet: The ongoing conflict in West Asia (Middle East) is not a distant geopolitical event for Sri Lanka.
