Albanese is walking the diplomatic tightrope as well as protecting Australia’s interests. Aust is a small nation with a small ADF. The only possible ally is the USA should a major conflict occur. Chamberlain tried to keep the peace then Churchill abandoned Aust in 1942. It’s a 2 way street
I find it interesting how we are the lowly servants to America yet we have Pine Gap which apparently is incredibly important for them. Surely that can be used as leverage when negotiating. We were subservient to the Brits and now the US. We need to be stronger
What is concerning is our Prime Minister looks weak because he is doing his utmost to sound neutral. Not for Australians but to appease Trump. Most Australians would prefer we got out of AUKUS. That would be where to start. Say Australia is reassessing its position.
