Marking the 67th anniversary of the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, Maldivian Foreign Minister Moosa Zameer has articulated a clear vision for enhanced cooperation between the Maldives and Cuba. In a formal diplomatic communiqué addressed to his Cuban counterpart, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, Minister Zameer extended warm congratulations on behalf of both the Maldivian government and its citizens, recognizing the occasion as Cuba’s ‘Liberation Day.’
The correspondence served as a platform to reaffirm the enduring diplomatic partnership between the two nations. Minister Zameer explicitly expressed his intent to fortify the existing bilateral and multilateral collaboration in the years ahead, underscoring a mutual commitment to international solidarity. The message concluded with formal assurances of the Minister’s highest regard and esteem for his Cuban colleague.
The foundation for this modern partnership was established on January 29, 1977, when diplomatic relations were first formalized. For nearly five decades, the relationship has been defined by a consistent pattern of strong diplomatic alignment and reciprocal support across numerous international forums and development initiatives, fostering a relationship built on shared principles and mutual respect.
