Interim Minister for Foreign Affairs said the New Zealand government is not considering the plight of the people of Fiji by not allowing the interim government officials to hold bilateral talks with its International trading partners in New Zealand.
Ratu Epeli Nailatikau said our trading partners would also be disappointed as matters to be discussed are to try and improve the lives of the ordinary citizens of Fiji.
However Ratu Epeli said face to face talks often generate better results with International Partners.
Meanwhile, he confirms that no response has been forth coming from the Chair of the Pacific Islands Leaders Forum on their concerns over restrictions placed on the Fiji delegation by the New Zealand Government.
Fiji decided to pull out of the Pacific Islands Leaders Forum in Niue this week after being refused permission to hold bilateral talks in Auckland.
