Academic says Australia, NZ pressure Pacific on trade
Updated
A leading New Zealand academic, Auckland University Professor Jane Kelsey, believes Australia and New Zealand have been putting an unrealistic amount of pressure on Pacific island nations to enter into negotiations for a closer economic relations agreement. Professor Kelsey will outline her case in a speech at the University of Technology Thursday evening. The criticism comes as Pacific Island Forum leaders prepare to discuss the timetable for PACER Plus negotiations at their annual summit to be held in August, in Cairns.
