The Fiji Military Commander has issued an ultimatum demanding that the Government resigns during November. On 1 November, the Prime Minister made it clear he would not resign. The Fiji Military Commander is now in Suva following his return from an overseas tour. The security situation in Suva could therefore deteriorate at short notice. <\/p>\n<p>You should also exercise caution if travelling to the rest of Fiji, particularly in urban areas. You should avoid all military or political rallies and large gatherings of people and keep yourself informed of developments. The British High Commission in Fiji is monitoring events closely. <\/p>\n<p>The security situation in Fiji, although currently calm, could worsen at short notice. Britons should exercise caution, particularly in urban areas, and stay clear from military and political rallies as well as large crowds, it added. The FCO advice follows warnings given to Australians and New Zealanders by their respective governments.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The British Foreign and Commonwealth Office advise against all but essential travel to the Fijian capital Suva because of tensions in the relationship between the Government of Fiji and the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"css_class_manager_body_classes":"","css_class_manager_use_in_post_loop":false},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2425","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sidebar"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
