I am honoured Solomon Islands Prime Minister Matthew Wale chose Australia for his first official visit, indicating the closeness of our two nations. I welcomed warm discussions today with PM Wale and Ministers Houenipwela and Lilo as we work to elevate our bilateral relationship.
Australia and Papua New Guinea are the closest of neighbours and the truest of friends.
50 years ago, Australia and PNG worked together to lay the foundations of their new democracy.
Today we are working together to build peace, security and opportunity.
Australia and Solomon Islands are close friends and partners.
Today, Prime Minister Jeremiah Manele visited Canberra.
It was an opportunity for us to discuss our connected future, and to strengthen our partnership.
Congratulations to Jeremiah Manele on his election as Prime Minister of Solomon Islands. I look forward to working closely with him. Australia and Solomon Islands are close friends and our futures are connected. 🇦🇺🇸🇧
