The United States will establish diplomatic relations with the Cooks Islands and Niue, a move aimed at bolstering ties with partners in the Indo-Pacific.
President Biden announced Monday that the United States would recognize the Cook Islands and Niue as sovereign states, a move aimed at bolstering ties with partners and countering China's rising influence in the South Pacific region.
The Cook Islands and Niue are independent states with longstanding political alliances with New Zealand, but until now they had not been recognized as sovereign nations by the U.S. Biden said in a separate statement that Niue was a key partner in addressing climate change and protecting maritime borders in the Pacific.
