Russia’s Health Minister Mikhail Murashko was scheduled to arrive in Sri Lanka on 3 May for a three-day visit focused on cooperation between the countries’ health sectors.
An announcement issued on 2 May outlined meetings with Health Minister Nalinda Jayatissa and Foreign Minister Vijitha Herath. Visits to Colombo National Hospital and the University of Colombo’s medical faculty were also planned.
The proposed agenda included pharmaceuticals, equipment, specialist training and academic exchanges. Ayurveda and health tourism were among the additional areas identified for discussion.
Officials were preparing memoranda of understanding between the health ministries. The advance notice described the expected programme and possible agreements, rather than confirming the outcomes of meetings that had yet to take place.
