Maldives: Muizzu Accuses the Opposition of Staging a "Financial Coup" | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Maldivian President Mohammad Muizzu accused the country's opposition and the Bank of Maldives of colluding in a "financial coup" aimed at overthrowing his government. The crisis in the Maldives began over the weekend when the Bank of Maldives suspended foreign transactions and reduced customers' credit limits, affecting international payments and online foreign transactions. The bank defended its actions, saying it was struggling to meet demands. However, Muizzu dismissed these claims, alleging that the bank's directors are aligned with the opposition and are conspiring to destabilise his government. In response, the opposition Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) rejected Muizzu's accusations, calling it as "distraction". The opposition suggested that Muizzu might face a coup as trouble is brewing within the Muizzu government. On Vantage tonight, Palki Sharma brings you the full story.
