Australia announced a multimillion-dollar agreement with Nauru on Monday that gives Australia a veto right over a range of pacts the tiny Pacific atoll might want to enter with third countries including China.
Australia offered 140 million Australian dollars ($89 million) over five years to the remote nation's population of 12,000 under the treaty to be implemented next year, including AU$40 million ($26 million) to enhance policing and security.
