With thanks to Jean-Baptiste Jeangène Vilmer for sharing updates. There were 4 diplomatic missions in this building:🇺🇸 on the left ground floor, 🇫🇷 on the 1st, 🇬🇧 on the 2nd left and 🇳🇿 on the 3rd. The left part collapsed by one floor, crushing 🇺🇸 floor. All staff evacuated and ok.

I am pleased to see PCRIC's swift payout to the Government of #Vanuatu. The UK's support of PCRIC helps ensure they can provide the funds needed to address the devastating impact of the 17 December #earthquake.

Yesterday we joined other international observers for Vanuatu’s snap elections - visiting polling stations across Efate. The UK is committed to supporting the democratic process and we look forward to working with the new government once appointed.

Following December’s devastating earthquake, we have no office building but that didn't stop Jean-Baptiste Jeangène Vilmer and I flying the Ukraine flag to show solidarity to the government and people of Ukraine. Our security in Europe is inseparable from Ukraine’s security. 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 🇫🇷

Happy Chiefs’ Day Vanuatu! I enjoyed being part of yesterday’s celebrations - including the opening of the new Chief’s Nakamal following the devastating 2023 fire.
