Prime Minister Chris Luxon will visit Niue and Fiji this week to develop and reaffirm New Zealand's cooperation with the region. 

This will be Luxon’s first visit to the Pacific as Prime Minister.  

Political Editor Jason Walls told Tim Beveridge “He’s expecting to be received warmly and get a good welcome. It’s a strategic area of the world for New Zealand.” 

Walls said “He’s been in the job for about six months, but he hasn’t been jet-setting much - he’s been very focused on the 100-day plan and getting the budget out of the way.”
