This week I will travel to Samoa and Niue to continue to strengthen Australia\u2019s deep ties of friendship, respect and trust with our Pacific partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Australia is a partner the Pacific can count on \u2013 listening and acting alongside Pacific leaders to build a peaceful, stable and prosperous region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Samoa, I will meet Prime Minister La\u02bbaulialemalietoa and members of his Cabinet to advance Australia\u2019s and Samoa\u2019s cooperation across security, governance, climate, health, education, and economic growth, reflecting our shared commitment to Pacific-led solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Niue, I will meet Prime Minister Tagelagi to discuss Niue\u2019s development priorities and our shared ambitions for climate action in the Pacific.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Australia is proud to be the Pacific\u2019s largest and most comprehensive development partner, with increased investment in shared security, health and climate resilience to ensure our region is safe and secure in a more uncertain world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
