REF: STATE 3080


1. (U) Suva Acting DCM and Regional Environment Officer delivered
reftel demarche to Sai Navoti, Director (Under Secretary
equivalent),Political and Treaties Division, of the Fiji Ministry
of Foreign Affairs, International Cooperation and Civil Aviation
(MFA). Mr. Navoti stated that the government was deliberating on
whether to associate with the Copenhagen Accord. He said that the
recommendation by the Ministry of Environment was to not associate
with the accord. The MFA however is stepping up within the
government to promote association with the accord, he said.


2. (U) Given the urgency of the January 31 deadline, Navoti had
reason to believe that PM Bainimarama would sign the document
himself, as there was no time for the cabinet to debate the matter.



3. (U) Mr. Navoti disclosed that China and Japan had also delivered
demarches to Government of Fiji requesting the country associate
with the Copenhagen Accord.
