As foreign ministers and senior representatives from Pacific nations convened in Suva for the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF) to discuss key regional issues, New Zealand's foreign minister reportedly pushed to secure a joint statement condemning China's missile tests in July, however, his effort ultimately fell flat. A Chinese expert described the outcome as a clear rebuke to Canberra and Wellington's ingrained habit of speaking for the Pacific, saying the two countries must come to terms with a shifting reality: Pacific Island states are increasingly unwilling to let Australia and New Zealand dictate who their friends, foes and perceived security threats should be.
Pacific Island foreign ministers failed to agree on Friday to a joint response to China's missile launch in July, with further discussions expected at the Pacific leaders meeting at the end of August, said New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters, according to Reuters. 
According to a report from Radio New Zealand, there has not been a unanimous statement from Pacific nations about China's test-launch in July, and Peters said New Zealand had been pushing for one. Peters claimed that the Pacific missed an opportunity not to issue a joint statement soon after China's launch.
Australia's Foreign Minister Penny Wong said before the meeting that she hoped China took note of the "very clear response" already sent from the Pacific about the test, according to AFP.
Peters' push for a joint PIF statement on China's missile tests, together with Wong's remarks, are less about technical security concerns than an effort to turn their own anxieties about China into a regional agenda and pressure Beijing under the forum's collective banner. His description of Pacific Island countries' refusal to single out China as a "missed opportunity" also reveals little respect for their independent judgment, Chen Hong, director of the New Zealand Studies Centre, East China Normal University, told the Global Times.
The result is a clear rebuke to Canberra and Wellington's long-standing habit of arrogantly "speaking for" the Pacific, as island states are increasingly unwilling to let Australia and New Zealand decide who their friends, foes or security threats should be, said Chen Hong. 
The Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy said on July 6 that one of its strategic nuclear submarines successfully launched a strategic missile toward relevant high seas of the Pacific Ocean, which landed precisely within the designated waters. China notified relevant countries in advance of the test launch, a move that demonstrates the openness and transparency of the Chinese armed forces, Chen Xi, a spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defense, said at a press conference on July 7. 
Chen Hong also noted that Peters' recent China-related rhetoric has become increasingly populist and hawkish as elections approach in New Zealand. "Such an approach risks undermining New Zealand's long-standing reputation for pragmatic, independent, and rational diplomacy," Chen Hong said. 
In July, during a parliamentary debate on New Zealand's Covid-19 pandemic response, Peters, who is also leader of the populist New Zealand First party, told a Chinese-born lawmaker to "go back to your own country" while mocking his English proficiency. His remarks drew wide criticism in New Zealand.
Yet Australia and New Zealand continued to amplify missile-related issues and great-power rivalry, pushing the "China threat" narrative to the center of the regional agenda while sidelining the priorities that matter most to Pacific Island nations, said Chinese analysts. 
Chen Hong noted that for island states, the most urgent concerns are not geopolitical competition but everyday challenges: climate change, energy security, development financing, infrastructure and economic resilience. By shifting the focus from these concerns to strategic rivalry among major powers, Australia and New Zealand risk distorting the region's real priorities and undermining the aspirations of Pacific Island countries.
According to an introduction on the forum website, "The Forum's Pacific Vision is for a resilient region of peace, harmony, security, social inclusion and prosperity, so that all Pacific people can lead free, healthy, and productive lives."
At the opening of the meeting, Rick Houenipwela, foreign minister of the Solomon Islands and chair of the meeting, said that the Pacific's agenda must continue to be "conceived ⁠by the Pacific, shaped by the Pacific and only by the Pacific," according to Reuters. 
Chen Hong said Pacific Island nations have made their position clear: differences with China do not mean signing up to the strategic agendas of Australia and New Zealand. A growing number of island countries refuse to be trapped in the black-and-white binary choice of siding with either China or the West.
If Canberra and Wellington keep pushing rhetoric beyond the regional consensus, they risk undermining the very institution they claim to support. The PIF's strength lies not in issuing confrontational statements, but in preserving Pacific unity. Turning that consensus into a tool for pressuring China would erode the forum's cohesion and weaken its central role in the region, said Chen Hong.

C | 温州海事局船舶交通管理中心执法人员陈辛庚介绍，自8月3日启动防台应急响应以来，辖区576艘交通运输船、238艘游艇已全部撤离，近3500名船上人员和海岛旅客被安全转移，做到应撤尽撤。

D | 　　面对这场风雨重压，作为台风登陆核心区的温州、台州两地防台工作全面提速。

E | 截至8日晚，台州统筹255支救援队伍前置重点地区，梯次转移4.68万人；温州各级党员干部迅速下沉一线，2.56万名村社两委干部、8.2万名党员志愿者闻令而动，全力投入群众转移、安置点服务等工作，在风暴来临前筑起坚实的安全防线。  8月9日在台州玉环坎门街道东沙社区拍摄的风雨交加的情景。

F | 记者 黄宗治 摄  登陆时刻：风暴眼中的守护　　9日傍晚，台州玉环市区已经狂风大作，暴雨如注。　　位于玉环市玉城中学的安置点灯火通明，玻璃门窗在狂风中发出阵阵低沉的“嗡嗡”声。与窗外形成鲜明对比的，是安置点内的安静。在这里安置着近300名外来务工的建筑工人，大家正三三两两围坐，低声交谈，秩序井然。　　9日17时30分、18时40分前后，台风“白海豚”（强台风级）的中心先后在浙江省台州玉环市坎门街道和温州乐清市翁垟街道沿海两次登陆，登陆时中心附近最大风力分别为14级和13级。　　记者第一时间赶到坎门街道东沙社区，这里三面环海、一面靠山，是台风第一次登陆的首冲区域。

G | 17时30分许，这里狂风裹挟着暴雨，如密集的钢针般砸向地面，汹涌的海浪化作数米高的“水墙”，狠狠拍击在防波堤上，卷起十几米高的白色水雾。

H | 　　在不远的台州玉环海事处的指挥大厅里，气氛紧张而有序。工作人员全员在岗，紧盯着“海上智控平台”的巨幅屏幕，上面密布着辖区内每一艘船舶的实时动态。

I | 　　“自8日上午8点启动一级防台应急响应以来，台州辖区已有625艘商船在18处水域避风，31艘应急救助拖轮已科学布防。”台州海事局政委孔祥国介绍。　　在温州乐清，上百辆警车化身“移动广播站”，深入街巷高频次播报预警信息。为严防人员冒险返船，温州海事部门利用无人机，构建起“海巡+空巡+电子巡航”的三位一体监管模式，对辖区水域进行“拉网式”排查。　　在这场与台风的正面交锋中，温州、台州两地累计出动数万名党员干部、消防救援人员及志愿者，上千辆抢险车辆、数百台大型排涝设备24小时不间断在街巷、堤坝、易涝点穿梭巡查，在风暴眼中全力奋战。  8月9日在台州玉环坎门街道东沙社区拍摄的风浪。

J | 记者 黄宗治 摄  登陆之后：风雨不歇的战斗　　台风“白海豚”登陆后，记者驱车一路所见，既有狂风肆虐后的残痕，更有秩序井然的清障作业。在玉环市区，持续暴雨让部分街道化作湍急河流，积水漫过小腿。行道树被连根拔起，横七竖八倒在路面。

K | 市政抢险队伍正切割移走倒伏树木，在积水路段调集大型抽水泵强排，确保排水管网畅通。　　然而，随着“白海豚”中心向内陆移动，猛烈的风雨开始减弱，但防汛的弦依然紧绷。气象专家指出，“白海豚”移速偏慢，且与西南季风结合，降水持续时间长，累计雨量异常充沛。　　受此极端天气影响，城市内涝问题随之凸显。由于瞬时雨量较大，内河水位不断升高，市政管网排水不畅，台州市椒江区部分路段出现积水。

L | 椒江区市政部门紧急投入抢排作业，巡查积水点、清理雨篦和雨水排口，处置积水点35处。　　事实上，不仅是城市排涝面临考验，更广泛的区域仍存在极端致灾风险。据了解，受台风“白海豚”影响，浙江中东部沿海部分地区已出现250至400毫米的特大暴雨，局地单点降雨量甚至突破600毫米，极端致灾风险依然严峻。　　“台风过境不等于警报解除。”孔祥国说，海上防台风“启动早、结束晚”，即使风雨停歇，涌浪仍将持续数小时甚至更久。因此，必须严防人员提前返船，并有序组织船舶分批出港。　　与此同时，内陆水库与山地的次生灾害防范同样刻不容缓。在台州朱溪水库、乐清白石水库等地，水利部门正密切监视着水位变化。浙江省防指成立的7个救援指导组，正分赴沿海和台风影响重点地区，对地质灾害点、山洪风险区进行拉网式“回头看”。　　台风过境，战斗未止。　　从台州玉环到温州乐清，这场惊心动魄的防台风硬仗，正是浙江全省众志成城迎战“白海豚”的生动缩影。面对跨越4700公里的风雨重压，之江大地从海岛渔村到城市社区，从海塘堤坝到地灾隐患点，党员干部与抢险救援人员彻夜坚守、向险而行，全力守护人民生命安全。
