"The Government of the Republic of Maldives welcomes the Joint Trilateral Statement by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the People's Republic of China announcing that an agreement has been reached between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran, including an agreement to resume diplomatic relations between the two countries and reopen their embassies and missions, as well as the affirmation of respect for the sovereignty of the Republic of Maldives." In light of these positive and welcome developments, the Government of Maldives has decided to reestablish diplomatic relations with the Islamic Republic of Iran, according to a government statement. The Maldives severed political ties with Iran on May 17, 2016, while former President Abdullah Yameen was in office. After China-led mediation talks, Saudi Arabia and Iran reestablished diplomatic ties. The two nations reaffirmed their respect for state sovereignty and their policy of non-interference in the internal affairs of other nations. Included in the agreement is the reopening of their embassies and missions. This significant development follows years of tensions between the two countries, including an attack attributed to Tehran on the heart of the kingdom's oil production that was devastating. In accordance with the trilateral agreement under which China would host and sponsor talks between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran, "due to their shared desire to resolve their differences through dialogue and diplomacy, and in light of their brotherly ties." The three nations expressed their eagerness to make every effort to advance regional and global peace and security. The Saudi and Iranian delegations expressed their appreciation and gratitude to Iraq and Oman for hosting dialogue rounds between the two countries in 2021 and 2022. The two parties also expressed their appreciation and gratitude to the leadership and government of the People's Republic of China for hosting and sponsoring the negotiations, as well as for the efforts it made to ensure their success. It is pertinent to note that ties between Saudi Arabia and Iran were severed in 2016 following the storming of the Saudi embassy in Tehran during a dispute between the two nations over the execution of a Shi'ite Muslim cleric by Riyadh.
