Mohamed Nasheed, Former President of the Maldives, spoke with Cary Johnston of Firstpost on the sidelines of the Raisina Dialogue 2026 in New Delhi, sharing his views on the escalating tensions in West Asia, India-Maldives relations, China’s influence and the growing threat of climate change. Nasheed described the ongoing conflict in West Asia as deeply worrying and cautioned that attempts to change Iran’s regime through military force would be extremely difficult. He argued that military action may weaken a country’s capabilities but is unlikely to bring political transformation. Nasheed also emphasised the importance of strong ties between the Maldives and India. He said India remains the primary security provider and first responder for many small island states in the Indian Ocean, especially during times of regional instability. While acknowledging the Maldives’ financial debt to China, he noted that geography, culture and longstanding ties keep India central to the Maldives’ strategic outlook.
