Chinese President Xi vows to deepen ties with Maldives; congratulates Muizzu on his election as President

  • Chinese President Xi Jinping congratulates President-elect Mohamed Muizzu and pledges to deepen bilateral ties with the Maldives, emphasizing the long history of friendly exchanges between the two countries.
  • Muizzu's victory in the presidential runoff, defeating incumbent Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, has raised expectations that the Maldives will pursue pro-Beijing policies. However, observers suggest that Muizzu may adopt a more cautious foreign policy approach due to the country's precarious economy and debt repayments.
  • The Maldives' strategic location in the Indian Ocean and China's previous investments in the region, such as the Hambantota port in Sri Lanka, have prompted concerns about China's influence and debt traps.
