India Pledges $565M to Maldives
Israa Farhan India has announced a $565 million financial support package for the Maldives, aiming to enhance defense capabilities and invest in large-scale infrastructure projects. The commitment was made during Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's two-day official visit to the Maldives, his first since securing a third term in office. The funding includes a new line of credit designed to strengthen Maldivian security forces and address critical infrastructure needs, including healthcare, housing, and education. The announcement comes at a time of financial strain in the Maldives, with the island nation facing a shortage of foreign currency despite continued growth in its tourism sector. India also agreed to reduce annual repayments on a previous $51 million loan to \$29 million. The two sides held discussions on a potential free trade agreement, reflecting a wider effort to deepen economic and strategic ties. Modi's visit follows rising concern in New Delhi over the Maldives' closer alignment with China since the election of President Mohamed Muizzu in 2023. The new administration had previously ordered the withdrawal of a small Indian military contingent operating a rescue aircraft in the archipelago. However, diplomatic relations between the two countries appear to have stabilized in recent months, with both sides emphasizing cooperation in security and trade. During the visit, Modi inaugurated the new headquarters of the Maldivian Ministry of Defense and launched several Indian-funded infrastructure projects. These included major road developments and a housing initiative to construct 4,000 residential units, part of India's broader investment push in the region. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language

Egypt Marks Suez Canal 69th Nationalization Anniversary.. Reaffirms Commitment to Global Supply Chain Sustainability
Taarek Refaat Osama Rabie, Chairman of the Suez Canal Authority (SCA) reaffirmed the canal's strategic role in global trade and its commitment to sustainable and secure navigation, as Egypt marks the 69th anniversary of the nationalization of the Suez Canal. In remarks delivered during a commemorative ceremony, Rabie highlighted the canal's ongoing adherence to international conventions governing free maritime navigation, while underscoring Egypt's unwavering sovereignty over the waterway. 'We are committed to upholding our pivotal role in ensuring sustainability across global supply chains, and we operate in accordance with international charters and treaties, without compromising Egyptian sovereignty,' Rabie stated. The Suez Canal was nationalized on July 26, 1956, a landmark moment in Egypt's modern history that asserted national control over one of the world's most vital maritime corridors. Rabie praised the generations of Egyptian leaders and workers who have managed and modernized the canal since that time. 'We salute the pioneers who led the nationalization and laid the foundations of development. We continue their mission with more dedication and achievement,' he said. The SCA chief noted that canal operations are governed by a robust legal framework, particularly the Navigation Regulations and the 1888 Constantinople Convention, which guarantees freedom of navigation through the canal for all vessels in both peace and wartime. Under Egypt's stewardship, the canal has seen continuous upgrades to maintain its status as the shortest, fastest, and safest maritime route between East and West. Rabie pointed to recent development projects that have enhanced the canal's capacity, navigational safety, and competitiveness. Rabie also extended his gratitude to all SCA personnel and canal pilots, relaying personal appreciation from President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi. He emphasized the professionalism of the canal's pilots, describing them as exemplary ambassadors of Egypt. 'Our pilots have consistently risen to the challenge, demonstrating exceptional dedication under all circumstances. Their professionalism ensures the safety and sustainability of navigation through the canal,' he added. As global shipping continues to face mounting challenges, from geopolitical disruptions to climate-related vulnerabilities, the Suez Canal remains a critical artery for international trade, handling over 12% of global commerce annually. Egypt's reaffirmation of its commitment to international maritime norms, coupled with continued investment in canal infrastructure, is seen as a signal to global partners that the Suez Canal will remain a reliable, neutral, and efficient trade route in an increasingly complex world. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language
