Fiji’s prime minister says he hopes Australia’s acquisition of a fleet of submarines powered by U.S. nuclear technology will enhance peace in the Pacific region but stopped short of endorsing the increased military cooperation with the United States
Fiji’s prime minister said Tuesday he hopes Australia's acquisition of a fleet of submarines powered by U.S. nuclear technology will enhance peace in the Pacific region but stopped short of endorsing the increased military cooperation with the United States.
“I was not part of the planning. I’m in no position to try to stop it. This is a tripartite strategic project,” Rabuka said. “All I can do is hope that this project will assist the concept of the zone of peace in the Pacific,” he said. Rabuka said he will propose that the Pacific Islands Forum endorse his zone of peace proposal at a meeting in the Cook Islands in November.
