Sri Lanka's new president Maithripala Sirisena addresses the nation after taking oath, as new prime minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, center in black coat, and former president Chandrika Kumaratunga, center left, stand in the crowd in Colombo, Sri Lanka, Friday, Jan. 9, 2015. Sirisena, a longtime political inside, and an ally of former President Mahinda Rajapaksa until just a few weeks ago, won the Thursday election by capitalizing on Rajapaksa's unpopularity among this island nation's ethnic and religious minorities, as well as grumbling among the Sinhalese majority about his family's growing power.
