Port Vila Political Brief

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Nakamal Agreement: An Australian parliamentary inquiry heard the treaty could nearly double the eight Australian Federal Police officers in Vanuatu. Officials said its restriction on foreign military bases reflects existing Vanuatu law; the policing partnership is the main expansion. West Papua: Vanuatu and Solomon Islands urged Indonesia to allow a UN human rights commissioner to assess the situation. Indonesia said any visit must be agreed with Jakarta. Climate Diplomacy: Prime Minister Jotham Napat called for a united Pacific message on climate action ahead of COP31. Tax Oversight: The EU removed Panama and Vietnam from its tax non-cooperation list but kept Vanuatu on it; the next update is expected in February 2027.
