Foreign Minister Senator Marise Payne said Australia and Tonga have a strong and enduring partnership, established over 50 years of formal diplomatic relations and underpinned by deep personal, historical and cultural ties.

Australia's focus in Tonga was particularly on working with the country toward stronger health systems, recovery from Covid-19, gender equality, and building resilience to natural disasters and climate change, the country's Minister for Foreign Affairs said.
