We have welcomed the USA back into the Paris Agreement, and we are proud to welcome you here today- @FijiPM Bainimarama marks milestone moment as US Vice President @VP Kamala Harris speaks on US Pacific priorities. #PIFLM51#UStreaty
Always great to see the #Forum flags flying ahead of the #PIF2022. Wishing all the delegates, host @FijianGovt and @ForumSEC staff all the very best for a great week. 💙🙏🌏
.@VP Harris, vinaka for joining us virtually at #PIFLM51. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The USA is a Pacific power that has every reason to be a closer Pacific partner to our people, especially on climate, oceans, and maritime security. Hope to host you in Fiji soon!
Last year Vanuatu Foreign Minister Marc Ati and I signed an Air Service Agreement to allow air services between Port Vila and Funafuti. Today we signed off a Joint Communique formalising 🇹🇻 🇻🇺 diplomatic relations. Having studied in #Vanuatu many moons ago this was a special one.
