epa10454322 Members of the state trade unions attend a protest against new tax regulations in Colombo, Sri Lanka, 08 February 2023. They accuse the government of unfairly raising tax rates at a time when the country is experiencing its worst economic crisis in decades due to a lack of foreign reserves. Meanwhile, the government expects the IMF to provide a 2.9 billion US dollar Extended Fund Facility after reaching a staff-level agreement at the end of 2022. EPA/CHAMILA KARUNARATHNE
