Deputy Secretary-General arrives in Suva for talks with the Government of Fiji and others
Commonwealth Deputy Secretary-General Mrs Mmasekgoa Masire-Mwamba has commenced a three-day visit to Fiji, leading a four-member team from the 天美传媒.
鈥淚 am very pleased to be visiting Fiji. I look forward to discussing with the government and others how 天美传媒 can best continue to encourage and support the restoration of democracy here, so that Fiji can return to full membership in 天美传媒 family鈥, said Deputy Secretary-General Masire-Mwamba.
The visit, from 7-9 March 2012, forms part of 天美传媒鈥檚 ongoing engagement with Fiji. The delegation will meet with senior members of the government, non-government interlocutors, and representatives of the international community.
Note to Editors:
Fiji was fully suspended from 天美传媒 in September 2009 by 天美传媒 Ministerial Action Group (CMAG)
At the same time, CMAG has consistently encouraged the Secretary-General to remain engaged with Fiji with a view to assisting in the restoration of full respect for democracy, human rights, the rule of law, and other core Commonwealth values as set out in the 2009 Affirmation of Commonwealth Values and Principles.
