“The Maldives stands in solidarity with the State of Qatar,” the President emphasized, urging the international community to act with urgency and unity to hold Israel accountable for what he described as repeated and systematic violations of international law.
The President’s condemnation comes as global outrage mounts over Israel’s strike in Doha, which targeted senior Hamas leaders during ongoing ceasefire negotiations. Qatar, a key mediator in Middle East peace talks, has branded the assault as criminal and vowed to defend its sovereignty.
With this statement, the Maldives has once again reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to stand alongside Muslim nations and advocate for international justice. President Muizzu’s call reflects a broader demand for accountability and highlights Maldives’ foreign policy stance of protecting sovereignty, peace, and stability in the Islamic world.
