太平洋岛国论坛年度领导人会议在帕劳召开,但开局遭遇重大波折。1论坛18个成员国中有5个国家的领导人缺席,分别是基里巴斯、斐济、瓦努阿图、萨摩亚和所罗门群岛。1新西兰外长温斯顿·彼得斯对此表示,这些缺席情况"极其可疑"。1本届会议的主题为"构建经济:生命、行动、团结"。1
中国因台湾代表团在会议中以独立身份参会而表示"愤怒",并威胁将面临"后果"。1这一立场反映了大国在太平洋地区地缘政治竞争中的紧张局势。据了解,中国与所罗门群岛在2022年签署了安全协议。1同时,澳大利亚也在积极推进与太平洋岛国的安全合作,分别与图瓦卢(2023年)、瑙鲁(2024年)、巴布亚新几内亚(2025年)、瓦努阿图(2026年)和斐济(2026年)签署了安全条约。1
The Pacific Islands Forum's annual leaders' meeting in Palau has been marked by significant disruptions, with five member states failing to send their heads of government.1 The absences of leaders from Kiribati, Fiji, Vanuatu, Samoa, and Solomon Islands have raised questions about China's expanding influence in the region.1
China has expressed fury over Taiwan's participation in the forum as an independent delegation, threatening unspecified consequences for those involved.1 New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters characterized the wave of absences as "extremely suspicious," underscoring concerns about geopolitical interference.1 The forum, which includes 18 member states, convened under the theme "Building an Economy: Life, Action, Unity."1
The tensions reflect broader strategic competition in the Pacific. China has cultivated security partnerships in the region, including a 2022 security agreement with Solomon Islands.1 Australia has moved to counter this influence through its own security pacts, having signed treaties with Tuvalu in 2023, Nauru in 2024, and Papua New Guinea in 2025, with agreements planned for Vanuatu and Fiji in 2026.1
