Maldives Presidential Election: India and China Compete for Influence| OneIndia News

The Maldives' recent presidential election, likely headed for a second round, is significant in the India-China influence competition.

Mohamed Muizzu, leaning toward closer ties with China, leads in the first round but lacks a majority, while President Ibrahim Solih, a proponent of strong India ties, trails behind.

India and China have made substantial infrastructure investments, with India focusing on cultural, financial, and security bonds, and China advancing its Belt and Road initiative.

Muizzu's party criticizes India's influence, while Solih lauds India's support.

The election outcome may impact the Maldives' future relations with these major Asian powers.
