The United States launched a major push into the Pacific on Wednesday, seeking to hold off China’s advance in the region, with Vice President Kamala Harris announcing $600 million in funding at a key regional summit.
Harris also revealed the US will open two new embassies -- in Tonga and Kiribati -- during an unprecedented address to the Pacific Islands Forum in Fiji.
It marks the first time regional leaders have met together since the Solomon Islands signed a controversial security pact with China earlier this year. The US vice president thanked Fiji President Voreqe Bainimarama for inviting her to speak at the summit and said the US was ready to"embark on a new chapter" in the Pacific.
