Foreign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr. said there was no need for the Department of Foreign Affairs to send a response team to Sri Lanka amid an ongoing economic crisis there but stressed that the DFA is ready to respond to the needs of Filipinos abroad.

“Forget a DFA response team to Sri Lanka; there is no emergency there,” he wrote in his tweet Friday, June 3. According to Locsin, the DFA needs a “true report” on the situation in Sri Lanka as the agency is getting reports from “troublemakers.” In a televised press briefing on Monday, May 31, Arriola said the DFA would be going to Sri Lanka to assist OFs in need financially.
