The British government should take all the necessary steps to protect coloured citizens and their property from being looted during the ongoing riots in London, Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa told Ada Derana exclusively.
He stated that neither the UK government nor the police have been able to effectively quell the riots while he appealed the British government to ensure the protection of its citizens’ rights swiftly through direct intervention.
Meanwhile, the Sri Lankan Acting High Commissioner in London said that they were closely monitoring the situation while no Sri Lankans were affected as yet.
