Key takeaway from the 🇮🇳India-🇫🇯Fiji Joint Statement (released overnight): significant proposed increase in defence cooperation between the two countries. For Ocean of Peace watchers, this reflects the duality of the concept.

⬇️

Point 13: Both Leaders acknowledged the growing momentum in bilateral defence ties. They emphasized the importance of their shared interests in advancing regional peace, stability, and prosperity. Prime Minister Modi reaffirmed India’s commitment to advancing the priority areas of cooperation outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding on Defence Cooperation signed in 2017, and to supporting Fiji’s strategic priorities in these areas. The Leaders welcomed the outcomes of the inaugural Joint Working Group (JWG) on Defence, including enhanced cooperation in areas such as United Nations Peacekeeping Operations (UNPKO), Military Medicine, White Shipping Information Exchange (WSIE), and capacity building for Republic of Fiji Military Forces.

Point 14: The Leaders expressed satisfaction with the ongoing defence collaboration and reaffirmed their commitment to further strengthen these ties, emphasising the need to enhance defence and maritime security cooperation. Prime Minister Rabuka stressed the significance of ensuring security of Fiji’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and welcomed India’s assurance to extend assistance to meet the security needs of the Republic of Fiji. Prime Minister Rabuka welcomed the planned port call by an Indian Naval Ship to Fiji which will enhance maritime cooperation and interoperability.

Point 15: Both Leaders reaffirmed their commitment to further deepening defence cooperation through new initiatives aimed at accelerating bilateral defence efforts and designed to promote mutual benefits and advance peace, stability, and prosperity in the region. Prime Minister Modi announced the gifting of two ambulances to the Republic of Fiji Military Forces and the establishment of the defence wing in the High Commission of India in Suva. In view of cyber security being an emerging area of cooperation between both countries, the Leaders welcomed the establishment of Cyber Security Training Cell (CSTC) in Fiji. They emphasized the significant potential for collaboration on addressing current and emerging challenges, particularly in the maritime, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief (HADR), and technology sectors.

Point 16. The Leaders underscored the importance of a free, open, secure, and inclusive Indo-Pacific region. They announced their intent to collaborate on strengthening regional maritime security, contributing to peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific.

An extraordinary statement by the Chinese Embassy in Tonga in which they reject claims China is interfering in Pacific Islands Forum cooperation and claim to respect the Pacific Islands Forum role in the region but:
1. State that the reference to Taiwan in the Pacific Islands Forum 1992 Honiara Communiqué (which established the status quo - Taiwan as development partner) is in violation of the 'one China principle"
2. Call for the 1992 Honiara Communique to be corrected to remove the "erroneous Taiwan-related content."

#Regionalism

These words from Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara at the inaugural South Pacific Forum (now known as the Pacific Islands Forum) in 1971 continue to resonate powerfully today.

As the region engages in the Review of the Regional Architecture (RRA), we are reminded that Pacific regionalism was never just about structures, it was about solidarity, service, and self-determination.

Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara spoke of a vision anchored in the will of Pacific peoples, one that laid the foundation for a regional system rooted in respect, dialogue, and mutual support. That precedent of working together to solve shared challenges, is still what binds us.

The RRA is not just a review. It is an opportunity to reimagine how we cooperate in a changing world, and to ensure our institutions remain fit for purpose, grounded in Pacific values, and led by Pacific voices.
