For ‘Friend’ India? Why Lanka told Chinese ‘spy’ ship to defer Hambantota port

After India questioned the 'real purpose' of Chinese 'spy' ship's visit to Hambantota port, Sri Lankan government has asked China to defer the arrival of Yuan Wang 5 ship. The Chinese space-satellite tracker ship was set to dock at the China-leased, strategic Sri Lankan port on August 11 and leave on August 17 after refuelling. Indian officials had reportedly informed Sri Lanka that the Chinese ship could pose a threat to its national security as India's external affairs ministry informed it was monitoring the development closely.
