Russia expresses concern to Sri Lanka

12 Sep 2020

The decision of the Sri Lanka Medical Council (SLMC) to remove three prominent Russian state universities from the SLMC Approved List has caused concern in Russia, according to the Russian Embassy in Colombo. The SLMC's recent decision to remove People's Friendship University of Russia, Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University and Tver State Medical University from its Approved List, despite holding meetings with the officials of these Russian Universities is the cause of this concern. The Russian Embassy expressed its hope that the SLMC decision would not influence the practice of providing Russian State scholarships to Sri Lankan citizens in future, causing a loss of opportunities to young individuals to pursue their higher education free of charge at prominent Russian universities.
