NZ's Foreign Minister in Fiji for talks

4:52 am on 10 April 2014

New Zealand's Minister for Foreign Affairs, Murray McCully, is in Suva for talks today.

He will meet his Fiji counterpart, Ratu Inoke Kubuabola, as well as the attorney-general Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum and others.

The officials will discuss plans for the elections later this year, for which New Zealand is providing support.

The visit is the first since New Zealand and Australia lifted all sanctions against Fiji at the end of March.

Mr McCully will be in Fiji for two days.
