Foreign Policy
Nauru's foreign policy is pragmatic and survival-driven, leveraging its UN vote and diplomatic recognition for maximum economic benefit. Its partnership with Australia on immigration detention has provided crucial revenue but drawn international human rights criticism.
Despite its tiny size, Nauru has chaired AOSIS and been a vocal advocate for small island states in climate and ocean governance negotiations.
