Sri Lanka is following the footsteps of India’s other neighbour, Myanmar. Myanmar bought JF 17 aircrafts from Pakistan shortly after India invaded its territory.
Sri Lanka is likely to buy JF-17 thunder from Pakistan but India has threatened her not to go for this move it will not be good in favor of India, Sri Lanka ties.
Sri Lankan Government is facing mounting pressure from its powerful neighbour India over a defence deal Sri Lanka is to enter into with Pakistan. According to highly placed sources in the diplomatic circles, India has expressed its strong opposition to a deal the SL Government entered into with the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) to purchase 10 JF-17 combat aircraft.
It is pertinent to mention here that Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif is in Sri Lanka for 3 three days visit and they have already signed 8 different Memoranda of Understandings (MoUs) in various fields like Education, Trade, Technology and Science with host government.
