I've got a very large defense budget for buying American weapons
My defense ministry has around $6.9 billion in 5 years.
But we plan on using $14 billion out of $44 billion, close to 31%, on defense spending, just for buying the weapons we need.
These include:
F16, F35, M1A2, THAAD, P8As, etc.
We're also keen on building a large American military base with spy satellite operations capability, radar installations and support for a Naval fleet.
I think that many people know that Sri Lanka will prove America's best friend, ally and partner for the Asia continent.
Or the other side of this planet.
