In 1971 and 1988, people sacrificed their lives to create a socialist country, but there is no such thing as socialist countries in the modern world, said Agriculture Minister K.D. Lal Kantha.
Therefore, the National People’s Power Government will have to move forward by dealing with all the countries of the world, he said.
Although 70,000 youth of this country have sacrificed their lives for a socialist state, today his government has had to move forward by working with Dudley Sirisena as well as Dhammika Perera, he stressed that there is also room for the farmer in that journey.
