Фиджи

1987, май. Государственный переворот. После выборов состоявшего из индусов правительства (апрель) части фиджийской армии во главе с подполковником Ситивени Рабука низложили правительство в ходе бескровного переворота. Этот переворот явился отражением застарелого и глубокого этнического конфликта и опасений коренных фиджийцев по поводу индийского засилья в правительстве. Рабука потребовал специальных гарантий прав фиджийцев и постоянного контроля деятельности правительства с их стороны. Генерал-губернатор объявил на Фиджи чрезвычайное положение и повел переговоры о компромиссе, пообещав новые выборы и пересмотр конституции (август – сентябрь).

1987, сентябрь. Государственный переворот.

Разочарованный отсутствием политического прогресса, Рабука совершил новый переворот и установил на Фиджи прямое военное правление.
