Maldives welcomes United States of America-Iran agreement

Maldives welcomed the peace agreement between the United States and Iran, including a Memorandum of Understanding that resolves disagreements and ensures freedom of navigation through the Straits of Hormuz. The Maldives Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement calling the development an important step towards reducing tensions and advancing peace, security, and stability in the region. The Maldives acknowledged efforts by both countries and commended mediators Pakistan, Qatar, and other Gulf nations. The reopening of the Straits of Hormuz, closed by Iran on February 28 due to attacks, is a priority. The closure had caused fuel prices to rise, but the possibility of peace has dropped prices back to levels from two months ago, with crude oil falling to USD 80 per barrel.
