"Sri Lanka and Russia have very close defense cooperation. The drills went very well. They focused on jungle warfare. Sri Lanka has experience in this area as a tropical island with dense jungle. I believe our experience was well received. This cooperation will continue and will likely expand into other spheres," Gunasekera said when asked to assess the drills. In November, the Russian Eastern Military District said that the first phase of the joint Russian-Lankan exercise, Wolverine Trail-2025, had been held in Sri Lanka. Forces of both countries practiced coordinated operations on the island. Personnel from Russia's Eastern Military District participated in the exercise.
