Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi arrived in Honiara, Solomon Islands, on May 26 as part of a 10-day tour of the region. The visit comes as China puts forward both a wide-ranging draft agreement on security and economic cooperation and a five-year plan to 10 nations in the Pacific.
Beijing’s security pact with Honiara has raised fears in the region that it could lead to a Chinese military presence in the Pacific island nation. Both Honiara and Beijing have denied plans for a base.
