Male’: 17 May 2016

The Government of Maldives has today decided to sever diplomatic relations with Iran. The Maldives believes that the policies that Iranian Government pursues in the Middle East, and in particular, in the Arabian Gulf region, is detrimental to peace and security in the region, which, in many ways, is also linked to stability, peace and security of the Maldives.

The Islamic Summit held last month in Turkey called on Iran to pursue a policy based on the principle of “good neighbourliness, non-interference in their domestic affairs, respect for their independence and territorial sovereignty, [and] resolving differences by peaceful means in accordance with OIC and the UN Charters”. The Maldives calls on Iran to show more commitment and tangible results in implementing the recommendations of the OIC.

The Maldives established diplomatic relations with Iran on 2 June 1975.

What happens in Persian gulf region has nothing to do with the republic of Maldive whatsoever but as it seems the fiscal deficit that the Maldives government currently faces has paved path for Saudis to hijack its foreign policy ... small countries that have no influence or importance ...

It cause ringing in my ear when I hear this:

"good neighbourliness, non-interference in their domestic affairs, respect for their independence and territorial sovereignty "
​

I think someone have forgotten that for the 8 years they imposed the longest war of the last century on Iranian which caused death of around 1 million Iranian by supporting funding and arming Saddam ...

 

[Serpentine]

What a horrible loss.

Why do we have to lose such an important country in the world? I cried a lot today. I wanted to visit before it disappears.

A vanishing paradise: The Maldives expected to be swallowed by the ocean in the future

PS: Saudis spent a few million dollars again, to buy another lapdog.

Maldives finally took its revenge for this:

 

[B@KH]

LOL! Amazing power of Petro dollars.
wahabis can buy nations, governments and militaries.

Lol!. even usa fights wars for saudi

This small tiny island life is too short. so they wants billions from saudi to save some of their islands from drowning in ocean.

Pakistan tried to play its role to cool down saudi rhetoric against Iran, but saudi wahabis rejected Pak role.

 

[Sky lord]

The Iranians must be devastated !

yup, Maldives has been falling under wahhabi influence for a while, sad to see it culminate in this puppet move the world can see.

not good.

this is not limited to maldives. and it is not by chance that Modi visiting saudi and getting highest award.
the wahabi award that modi got, your ghandhi jee would never accept such a thing.

it is all petro dollars.

true, but hey, I suppose it was just business, unfortunately we do need that oil, as does China..

personally I'm really hoping for a US orchestrated regime change in KSA, destroy the religious order and the corrupt royalty, take the oil

US, India, Russia, China, Pakistan combined ops to topple the wahhabis, that would be glorious.

basically business is a fake lie, we falsely satisfy ourselves. because there are better ways for business without wars.
so business is not the Real reason as saudi is pumping oil so much to drain and dry the wells as much as it can and is selling to everyone whosoever buys it from them. so this visit was not for oil as saudi never stops oil to india. they honored modi with with big award for what ? so india, usa, saudi are same and india is secretly promoting and multiplying wahabism in india and squeezing particularly shias as much as it can since people of india have no problem with shia/sunni. it was modi who destroyed shia/sunni properties in Gujrat.

so Russia, China, Iran, Pakistan can combine and can produce good results. Pakistan only needs to take the right decision about it.

Actually Iran stock market has plunged dramatically after Maldive's decision to sever diplomatic relations with Iran ....

 

[Mentee]

Pakistan, Iran ,Turkey, combined ops to topple the wahhabis, that would be glorious.

Of course Maldives will side with Arabs due to historical, linguistic, religious and cultural reasons.

The people of Maldives are Sunni Muslims like the vast majority of Arabs, Arabs have traded with this part of the world since time immortal, the Maldivian language is heavily influenced by Arabic (more than any other foreign language), their alphabet is a mixture of the Arabic and indigenous one, many people from the Maldives work and live in Arab countries and Arabs are some if not the largest investors in Maldives.

Nobody needs to "pay" for anything just use their brains for once.

Anyway this is just another message to the Iranian Mullah's. A few months ago a coalition of almost 40 Muslim countries gave the same indirect message. I guess it's better to have ties with North Korea as the Iranian Mullah's pride themselves on, lol. Good going.

Anyway a visit to Maldives would not be a bad thing before those islands and atolls disappear.

I am sorry for this tremendous loss, I hope Iran can recover from this grave diplomatic set back. Maybe Iran should court Tuvalu to off set this imbalance??
