Pacific Islands Forum

New Zealand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has revealed that the Pacific Islands Forum has been targeted by what it calls a ’malicious cyber attack.’

The risk to small, low-lying island nations in the Pacific posed by climate change dominated the agenda at this year’s Pacific Islands Forum leaders meeting.

A single line saying the Forum reaffirmed a 1992 commitment to viewing Taiwan as a ‘development partner’ was removed.

James Marape wants the Pacific to tackle climate change head-on, taking direct measures rather than forcing people to leave their homelands.

Despite misgivings by some countries as to how it will be perceived by Beijing, the Pacific Islands Forum has signed on to Australia’s Pacific Policing plan.

Winston Peters has maintained his scepticism of the climate change consensus at the Pacific Island Forum also attended by the UN secretary-general.

Pacific leaders had planned a fact-finding mission to New Caledonia but say they were obstructed by France, which the French Ambassador denies.

Rising sea levels and extreme weather events continue to occupy much of the debate at the 53rd Pacific Islands Forum Leaders meeting in Tonga.

Despite increasing geopolitical uncertainty and thre pressing need for economic development, it is climate change that most concerns Pacific leaders.

Antonio Guterres told the opening of the Pacific Islands Forum in Tonga that any fossil fuels discovered now ‘will never be used.’

A magnitude 6.9 earthquake has hit the Pacific nation of Tonga.

The Pacific Islands Forum was viewed as a key bulwark against the CCP’s influence in the region.
