China said it hopes Fiji will continue to provide it with 'firm' support on issues concerning Chinese core interests and major concerns, Chinese state media cited President Xi Jinping as saying to the Fijian prime minister.

Xi told Fiji's Sitiveni Rabuka that China will continue to support Fiji in safeguarding its national sovereignty, security and territorial integrity, Chinese state television said.

China's policy on Pacific Island nations is to fully respect the sovereignty and independence of those countries, Xi added.
