Australia's PM, Anthony Albanese, will discuss a Pacific-wide policing agreement, the Pacific Policing Initiative, at the Pacific Islands Forum in Tonga. The initiative aims to counter China's influence in the region and costs hundreds of millions of dollars, involving a Brisbane-based regional training center, law enforcement excellence centers across the Pacific, and multinational police units for rapid deployment. The initiative resembles international bodies like EUROPOL and AMERIPOL.
