External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar is scheduled to make a three-day visit to the Maldives starting Friday. This will be the first high-level visit from New Delhi since President Mohamed Muizzu, who has pro-China leanings, took office nearly nine months ago.

According to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), "External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar will visit the Maldives from August 9-11." The visit follows President Muizzu's recent trip to India for the cabinet swearing-in ceremony.

Jaishankar had previously traveled to the Maldives in January 2023.
