It was a pleasure to participate as the Guest of Honour at the reception hosted by @UKinMaldives to celebrate the National Day of UK, which marks the birthday of His Majesty King Charles III.
Our nations are bound by mutual respect, history and strong people-to-people connections. We look forward to strengthening this important relationship in the years ahead, especially as we look forward to the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations next year.
The Maldives is no longer facing an immediate risk of a default and the island nation should focus on reducing spending and raising funds from friendly countries to avoid a crisis, according to the World Bank. https://t.co/CyHrwxeFBc

#NeighbourhoodFirst
I am delighted to welcome President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu to India. During our talks today, we discussed ways to improve economic linkages, connectivity, cultural connect and also cooperation in sectors like climate change, water resources, agriculture, fisheries and more.

While the Maldives has a clear claim, the UK should not give Peros Banhos Atoll (Foalhavahi in Maldives language) to Mauritius. This is deeply misguided policy.
Delighted to meet President of the Maldives H.E. Dr. Mohamed Muizzu @MMuizzu. We held wide ranging talks during our interaction on the sidelines of UNGA 79. We reiterated our shared responsibility as South Asian nations to work together for peace, prosperity and stability of the region.

🇵🇸 🇲🇻 President Dr Muizzu: “We must accept a sovereign and independent Palestinian state on the pre-1967 boarders with East Jerusalem as its capital. We welcome the decision to seat our brothers and sisters from Palestine with us here in the General Assembly, for the first time, instead of behind us. Now we must ensure that Palestine becomes a full member of the U.N., Mr. President.”
"How can we interpret this as anything other than brutal attempts to prevent the world from knowing about the crimes taking place?"
In his UNGA address, Maldivian President Mohamed Muizzu condemned Israeli ‘acts of terrorism’ and attacks on journalists.
