Opposition Brands Government ‘Dubious’, Warns Democracy at Risk

Fayyaz Ismail, Chairperson of the Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP), criticized President Mohamed Muizzu's administration as 'dubious' and warned that it threatens democracy. Ismail and former President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih accused the government of reneging on development promises and pursuing political vendettas. President Muizzu countered by stating that 155 out of 161 'Hafuthaa 14' pledges had been completed. MDP raised doubts about progress on key pledges, including the appeal against the ITLOS ruling. Ismail compared Muizzu's conduct to that of former President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom, whom he had previously called 'the pinnacle of tyranny.' Solih claimed the current government was worse than Yameen's. Muizzu called for a respectful and truthful electoral campaign.
