The Russian company "Airports of Regions" together with the Indian Shaurya Aeronautics (Pvt) Ltd will take over the management of the Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport (MRIA). It is located in the south of Sri Lanka, 15 km from the city of Hambantota.

The decision was made by the authorities of the island nation at a meeting of the Sri Lankan Cabinet, which took place last Friday. At the initiative of the authorities, the airport was transferred to the external management of Russia and India for a period of 30 years. The choice was dictated by the desire to reduce financial costs from the use of state-owned enterprises.
