The United States and Micronesia agreed to renew a key strategic pact, US presidential envoy Joseph Yun said.
Yun told the Compact of Free Association agreement (COFA) with Micronesia would be signed on May 22 at a ceremony in Papua New Guinea, attended by US President Joe Biden and new Micronesian President Wesley Simina.
Renewing the COFA agreements has become a key part of US efforts to push back against China's bid to expand its influence in the Pacific.
