Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was celebrated in Washington, D.C., Oct. 25, for his role in the AUKUS military pact between the U.S., U.K., and Australia, which Albanese foolishly stated would ensure “peace and security in our region.” He was feted to a grand dinner with 300 glitterati. The expected rock and roll band was replaced by a military band to fit the sentiments of the war hawks in attendance.
BBC reported that after the meeting between Albanese and Biden, “The leaders emphasized that they were united against all acts of aggression, particularly those by Russia and Hamas.” They pledged to “stand with Israel.” Speaking in the White House Rose Garden alongside Albanese, Biden took the opportunity to bash China, saying he wanted “to be very clear” that the American defense commitment to the Philippines was “ironclad.”
