Foreign Policy
New Zealand balances its Five Eyes intelligence partnership with an independent, values-based foreign policy. It is not part of AUKUS and maintains a more conciliatory approach to China than Australia. Key priorities include Pacific partnerships, climate leadership, nuclear disarmament advocacy, and free trade (it has FTAs with China, the EU, and the UK).
New Zealand's peacekeeping contributions, particularly in Timor-Leste and the Solomon Islands, reinforce its reputation as a trusted, non-threatening Pacific partner.
