Govt paid loans while serving people: Riyaz

Former Economic Ministry Deputy Minister Riyaz Mansoor stated that every government repays state loans and has fulfilled its obligations to the public while doing so. He noted that the Maldivian economy is currently in ruins, leaving citizens in great hardship. Riyaz highlighted difficulties in obtaining essential medicines and making payments abroad, as well as a record surge in the dollar's value in the market. He attributed the lack of foreign loans to a loss of confidence in the current government.
