Democrats call to revert to democracy in response to MDP PG decision

The Democrats have condemned Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP)'s decision to not cooperate in holding the swearing in ceremony of President Elect Dr Mohamed Muizzu unless the no-confidence motion against Parliament Speaker Mohamed Nasheed is allowed to proceed as scheduled.

The Democrats - a break away party formed by former members of MDP who support Nasheed - alleges that it is incumbent President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih who, with his defeat in September's presidential election, is encouraging MDP's parliamentary group (PG) to obstruct Muizzu's swearing in ceremony.
