Sri Lanka's Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe was on Wednesday given the additional responsibility of running the finance ministry as the island nation grapples with its worst-ever economic crisis.
President Gotabaya Rajapaksa's office announced that Wickremesinghe was sworn in, two weeks after he was invited to form a unity government following his predecessor's resignation.
