斯里蘭卡面臨嚴重的債務危機，需要立即採取行動以確保永續性。其獨特的地理置使其具有重要的戰略意義。在當前地緣政治變化和持續的貿易戰中，斯里蘭卡有潛力透過適當的討價還價策略有效地利用其地位。本研究採用博弈論模型來分析斯里蘭卡的情景，結果表明，鑑於目前的金融帳流入水平，斯里蘭卡與美國、印度和日本等國家結盟更為有利。該模型還表明，斯里蘭卡可以與競爭對手談判以獲得額外的財政支持，同時發展基礎設施以進一步增強其戰略重要性。

Sri Lanka faces a severe debt crisis that requires immediate action to ensure sustainability. Its unique geographical location grants it significant strategic importance. Amid current geopolitical shifts and the ongoing Trade war, Sri Lanka has the potential to leverage its position effectively with the proper bargaining strategies. This study employs a game theory model to analyze Sri Lanka's Scenario, revealing that, given the current level of financial account inflows, it is more advantageous for Sri Lanka to align with countries such as the United States, India, and Japan. The model also demonstrates that Sri Lanka can negotiate with competing parties to secure additional financial support while developing infrastructure to enhance its strategic importance further.
