AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

EU–Vanuatu Independence Diplomacy: EU Ambassador Barbara Plinkert wrapped a five-day visit to Port Vila, meeting Vanuatu’s finance, foreign affairs, infrastructure, fisheries and agriculture leaders to reaffirm EU support across agriculture, infrastructure, climate resilience, governance and economic development. Maritime Boundaries Push: Foreign Minister Marc Ati appointed former PM Joe Natuman as Special Envoy for Maritime Boundary and Decolonisation Issues, as Vanuatu presses France over the Matthew and Hunter islands and seeks movement on long-stalled maritime talks. Independence Anniversary Spotlight: PNG PM James Marape joined Vanuatu’s 46th Independence Day celebrations in Port Vila, with state honours recognising PNG’s historic support during Vanuatu’s 1980 independence struggle. Regional Security & Influence: The US is in advanced talks to help finance a port in Solomon Islands (Bina Harbour), reviving competition with China in Pacific infrastructure and strategic access. Diplomatic Shock in the Pacific: Nauru severed ties with Georgia’s Russia-occupied Abkhazia and Tskhinvali/South Ossetia, reversing its 2009 recognition—prompting sharp reactions from Abkhazia. Climate & Oceans: PNG, Vanuatu and Fiji’s Melanesian Ocean Corridor of Reserves (MOCOR) continues to expand, with Solomon Islands joining, though details on enforcement and community consultation remain thin.
