In a move that blends island vibes with global climate goals, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Niue's Premier Dalton Tagelagi pledged deeper cooperation at the China-Pacific Island Countries Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Xiamen. The duo called for a "fair, win-win" climate system, proving big and small nations can unite for the planet. 🌱
From Coral Reefs to Green Deals
Wang highlighted China and Niue's 2018 "comprehensive strategic partnership" – think infrastructure meets solar panels! 🤝 The two countries aim to boost green development and tourism, with Wang even encouraging more travelers to explore Niue's pristine beaches. 🏝️
Small Island, Big Principles
Niue reaffirmed its support for the one-China principle, while China promised to back the island’s sustainable development. Tagelagi emphasized teamwork on marine protection and telecom projects, joking (we imagine): "Who says you need to be big to make waves?" 🌊
Pacific Power Couple?
Both sides vowed to shake up the South Pacific’s development scene and defend fair global trade rules. As Wang put it: "Mutual respect isn’t just a hashtag – it’s how we roll." 💪
