Summary / Abstract (Note) | Sri Lanka has begun a new political chapter in 2020 with the election of Gotabaya Rajapaksa, who served as defence secretary for nearly a decade under his brother, President Mahinda Rajapaksa from 2005 to 2015. His electoral victory was not unexpected as most of the Sri Lankans hail him and his brother as national heroes for eliminating three-decade long Tamil separatist insurgency by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). |
