During the 80th United Nations General Assembly in New York, U.S. President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump met briefly with Fiji Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka and his wife Suluweti. A White House-released photo of the four smiling together, Trump flashing his signature thumbs-up has drawn attention across the Pacific. Prime Minister Rabuka described the encounter as a warm exchange that highlighted the value of strengthening ties and friendships between Fiji and the United States.
