The Solomon Islands’ Prime Minister, Manasseh Sogavare, has accused Australia of interference over its offer to help fund an election.

Sogavare is seeking to defer the vote due in mid-2023 by seven months.

Relations between the two countries have soured recently as his government grows closer with China.

Elections are usually held every four years, but the government is trying to delay the next poll until after the country hosts the Pacific Games in late 2023.
