This is the best summary I could come up with:


NEW DELHI, Dec 3 (Reuters) - India's government has agreed to withdraw its soldiers from the Maldives, the Indian Ocean archipelago's President Mohamed Muizzu said on Sunday.

Muizzu won the presidential election in September, having campaigned to alter the Maldives's "India first" policy and promising the removal of a small Indian military presence of some 75 personnel.

"We also agreed to set up a high level committee to solve issues related to development projects."

India provides certain military equipment to the Maldives, assists in disaster response and has been helping build a naval dockyard there.

The core group that both sides have agreed to set up will look at details of how to take this forward," said the official, without commenting directly on Muizzu's remarks.

India's ministry of foreign affairs did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Sunday.
