Rabuka Denies Resolving Adeang’s Issue at PIFs
Nauru President David Adeang is said to have walked out of the Forum Leaders Meeting on Rarotonga this morning after Baron Waqa’s nomination for next Secretary General was tabled for discussion by the Leaders. Mr Waqa is nominated by the Micronesian States.
Does it threaten the peace in the Forum, Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka does not think so, saying it was not an issue.
“Until I hear from him, I have not been informed that he has decided not to participate,” Mr Rabuka said.
He denied being asked to resolve the issue of Mr Adeang’s absence in the meeting.
“I was not asked to do anything. I don’t even know if he has shifted out, he was not at the last session. I didn’t see that as a walkout, because leaders would go out and be replaced by members of the delegation,” he said.
More details in tomorrow’s paper.
