The Embassy of the Maldives to the United States will serve as a vital bridge between the two countries in cultivating economic growth, cultural and people-to-people ties that will mutually benefit both nations. The establishment of the Embassy signals a bold new era of reinvigorated and strengthened diplomatic ties between the Maldives and the United States, and will no doubt bring forth greater cooperation and collaboration between the two countries in the global arena.
