Tongan Prime Minister Dr Feleti Sevele believes that Fiji's pursuance of partnerships with various countries around the world should not be of concern for the pacific island states.
As highlighted by Fijivillage earlier, Fiji is continuing to have talks and sign diplomatic relations agreements with a number of countries to ensure that Fiji is not reliant only on countries like Australia and New Zealand.
Dr Sevele told Radio Australia that Fiji should be allowed to make its own decisions and it should not be a matter of concern for the Pacific Islands Leaders forum.
Meanwhile, Dr Sevele is expected to meet Prime Minister Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama later today where he is also expected to confirm on whether Tonga will participate in the Melanesian Spearhead Group Plus meeting to be hosted by Fiji next month.
Dr Sevele's Press Secretary and Political Advisor Lopeti Senituli told Fijivillage that the Tongan Prime Minister has a number of meetings scheduled over the next few days.
