The Government of Vanuatu has formally advised the Forum of its intention to defer the 51st Pacific Islands Forum Meeting scheduled for 4 - 7 August 2020 to next year.
The Vanuatu National Taskforce recommended to the Government to defer in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
A meeting of the Vanuatu Council of Ministers discussed the recommendation at a meeting last month.
