Maldives president Abdulla Yameen has affirmed strong ties with India during his visit last week, which resulted in a string of agreements between the two countries, according to local media.
Abdulla Yameen was sworn in as Maldives president on Sunday, a day after wining a closely contested runoff election, ending nearly two years of political uncertainties that pose threat to the Indian Ocean holiday paradise's vital tourism sector.
