Pro-China candidate wins Maldives presidential election
In the Maldives, a candidate with pro-China leanings has won the presidential election, defeating the incumbent President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, who had bolstered ties with India. Mohamed Muizzu secured victory in the run-off poll with 54% of the vote, running on a platform that advocated distancing from India with the slogan "India out." Can Mohamed Muizzu favour one powerful ally over another without suffering serious consequences? And is foreign policy what matters to Maldivian voters?
