Nepal's new Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli
President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu congratulated Rt Honourable KP Sharma Oli following his appointment as the Prime Minister of Nepal.

In a post shared on social media platform X, the President stated that the Maldives and Nepal enjoy close people-to-people connections, and he looks forward to working closely with the Prime Minister of Nepal to enhance bilateral cooperation between the two countries.



Diplomatic relations between the Maldives and Nepal were established on 01 August 1980.

Veteran communist politician K.P. Sharma Oli was sworn in as Nepal's prime minister on Monday, the fifth in five years, hoping to ensure political stability in the impoverished Himalayan nation that badly needs to woo investors and create jobs.

Nepal has been politically unstable since it abolished a 239-year-old monarchy in 2008. Oli's new government will be the 14th since, with 72-year-old Oli himself returning for his fourth term.
