太平洋岛国论坛领导人峰会在帕劳召开，与会国家就中国7月向太平洋岛国水域发射弹道导弹一事发表了联合声明1。然而这份声明未获全票通过，反映出该地区在大国地缘政治竞争中的分裂1。
瑙鲁拒绝签署该声明1，而基里巴蒂领导人缺席了私下会议，改派前中国大使代表出席1。两周前在斐济苏瓦举行的外交部长会议上，瑙鲁和基里巴蒂也因反对而阻止了相关声明的发布1。声明本身避免直接点名中国，仅表达了"关切"而非更强硬的措辞1。新西兰总理克里斯托弗·卢克松对谈判结果评价道"我们已到达很好的地方"1。
这些立场分歧与太平洋地区的外交格局变化密切相关1。2024年瑙鲁与台湾断交，转向北京1，而峰会举办地帕劳则是仅有数个国家中仍承认台湾的国家之一1。
Leaders of Pacific island nations gathered at a summit in Palau were unable to achieve consensus on a joint statement addressing China's ballistic missile test in July 1. While a statement expressing concern was ultimately adopted, it did not secure unanimous support, reflecting deepening divisions within the region over great power geopolitical competition 1.
Nauru refused to sign the statement, and Kiribati's absence from private meetings underscored the fracture among Pacific nations 1. The adopted statement notably avoided naming China directly, using cautious language of "concern" rather than stronger condemnation 1. New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon characterized the outcome as having "reached a good place" 1. This marks the second diplomatic setback in as many weeks; a previous ministerial meeting in Suva, Fiji, two weeks earlier also failed to produce a statement due to opposition from Nauru and Kiribati 1.
The tensions reflect shifting allegiances in the Pacific. Nauru severed ties with Taiwan in 2024 and reoriented toward Beijing 1, while Palau remains among the few nations maintaining official recognition of Taiwan 1. Kiribati's leader was absent from the summit's closed-door sessions and instead sent a former Chinese ambassador as a representative 1.
