FIJI-AUSTRALIA-DIPLOMACY
Expelled Australian envoy Sarah Roberts (L) waves farewell as she and her family leave Suva for the airport, on July 14, 2010. Roberts, Australia's senior diplomat in Suva, boarded a flight to Sydney less than 36 hours after being ordered out of country amid accusations Australia was meddling in Fiji's internal affairs. She was declared persona non grata after the five-member Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG) cancelled a scheduled summit in Fiji citing concerns about democracy and "good governance" since the 2006 military coup. Canberra had lobbied for the summit to be postponed, and a Fiji government statement said Roberts' expulsion was a direct result of "interfering with the internal affairs of Fiji and conducting unfriendly acts".
