It is reported that China and the Solomon Islands signed a bilateral security cooperation framework agreement in April this year, highlighting China's growing influence in the Pacific region, and also caused concerns from the United States, Australia and New Zealand.
Fiame believes that security issues in the Pacific region should be dealt with by countries in the region, and these countries can also do so. "As a region, we need to deal with (security) issues in existing widespread background." She added that the general meeting of the Pacific Island Forum Leadership Conference, which will be held in July, discussed regional security issues, especially whether the existing security mechanism can meet regional demand exchange opinions so that regional countries do not need to seek outside regional support.
Fiame said that she understood the increasingly fierce competition in the area, but she emphasized that China has long existed in the region as diplomatic and economic partners for a long time. "I don't like racist elements in discourse."
She also reminded that the Pacific region is no longer just part of the "Blue Pacific" narrative, but has been integrated into the extensive Indo -Pacific region and requires greater right to speak. "The United States wants to come back ... I think this has also strengthened the role and function of Australia and New Zealand." Fiame believes that last year Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States announced the establishment of a three -sided security partnership (Aukus). Opinions of the country.
