STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSSYDNEY - Vanuatu's new prime minister, Sato Kilman, will"revisit" a security pact signed with Australia, Australian state broadcaster ABC reported on Tuesday, a day after he came to power in a vote by lawmakers.
Opposition lawmakers had said the security pact with Australia compromised Vanuatu's"neutral" status and could jeopardise development assistance from China, its biggest external creditor. "I think for us, at this point in time, I am not sure whether it is in the best interests of Vanuatu or not, only because we have not been consulted," Kilman said in an interview with the ABC in Port Vila.
Vanuatu is one of the Pacific island countries at the centre of competition for influence in the region between the United States and China.
