With Muizzu as Maldives Prez, India to wait watch
The Morning Standard
|October 02, 2023
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi was among the first leaders to congratulate Maldives' newly elected President Mohammed Muizzu on Sunday.
But considering the inclination of the former leader of opposition towards China, speculation is rife that all the diplomatic and political clout that India exercised in Maldives will now be a thing of the past.
"There is no doubt that Muizzu has leanings towards China, but we doubt if he would be able to, or rather be interested in, completely sidelining his association with India. That said, China and its presence in Maldives will be in the ascendant," said a political analyst from Male, wishing anonymity.
Muizzu won the Maldivian presidential poll defeating incumbent Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, securing 54 per cent votes against the latter's 46 per cent.

A SEASON OF SHARBAT
DELHI in summer does not arrive with subtlety, rather it announces itself in waves of heat that rise off the roads, in the blinding glare that bounces off glass buildings, in the way the air feels dense and unmoving, settling on your skin and refusing to let go.
