Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says his government pledges to take more action to support island nations on maritime security, climate change, boosting aid, and allowing Pacific island citizens to migrate to Australia.
SYDNEY, Australia – Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Canberra needs to “step up, not step back” in supporting the Pacific islands as China’s foreign minister arrived in the region seeking a sweeping regional deal on security and trade.
“We need to step up, not step back, which is what occurred under the former government,” he told Sky on Thursday, May 26. “I’ve been asked about Fiji’s agenda. At all tables, what matters most is our people and our planet, as well as respect for international law,” he wrote on Twitter on Thursday. China rejects this, saying the pact is focused on domestic policing and criticism by Western countries was interference in the Solomon Island’s sovereign decision-making.
