Sri Lankan President Anura Kumara Dissanayake
Sri Lanka's new president Anura Kumara Dissanayake has been sworn into office, promising clean politics as the country recovers from its worst economic crisis.
He has cast himself as a disruptor of the status quo, and analysts see his victory as a rejection of corruption and cronyism that has long plagued the country.
Saturday's election was the first since 2022, when discontent over the economy fuelled mass protests and chased former president Gotabaya Rajapaksa from power.
