Inte ational media have reported that Sri Lanka's creditors are preparing for their first round of negotiations today.

The meeting will be held online.

It is said that China's participation in this regard has not yet been specifically announced.

According to a framework agreed in Washington last April, it is hoped that it will provide a model for the debt crisis faced by middle-income countries.

Japan, India and France together have started that program.

Accordingly, it is reported that all bilateral creditors have been invited.
