Foreign Policy
Malta's foreign policy emphasizes Mediterranean security, migration management (as a major landing point for African migrants), and EU engagement. It maintains a constitutionally enshrined neutrality clause and is not a NATO member, though it participates in Partnership for Peace.
Malta leverages its shipping registry (one of the world's largest) and its EU Council presidency experience to influence maritime and migration policy.
