Maldives Finance Minister Moosa Zameer resigns
Finance Minister Moosa Zameer resigned on June 8, 2026. He submitted his resignation letter to President Mohamed Muizzu. Zameer first served as Foreign Affairs Minister in Muizzu's cabinet and was appointed Finance Minister on September 30, 2024. During his tenure, he oversaw the successful repayment of a USD 500 million sukuk. Zameer had previously attempted to resign on April 13, 2026, following the government's setback in local council elections, but reversed that decision after Muizzu apologized. The friction arose when Zameer advised Muizzu to learn from the electoral defeat, which Muizzu rejected.
