Australia

“Iran has ignored our call, and those of many others, not to proceed with these reckless attacks. This escalation is a grave threat to the security of Israel and the entire region.”

“I think it is an act of aggression. I think particularly because it has come so far south. It has been in close proximity to military and intelligence installations on the west coast of Australia.”

“We are looking forward to be able to make that decision to open up our borders and welcome visitors back to Australia again as soon as we safely and possibly can. But I really do not believe that that is far away.”

“We're not going back to lockdowns. We're going forward to live with this virus with common sense and responsibility.”

“The return of skilled workers and students to Australia is a major milestone in our pathway back.”

“Unfortunately, our government is actually expanding the coal industry. We're opening up new coal mines with project lifespans of 25 years or so. If we continue with this, we'd put the Paris climate goals out of reach.”

“We didn't steal an island, we didn't deface the Eiffel Tower. It was a contract. Contracts have terms and conditions, and one of those terms and conditions and propositions is that you might get out of the contract.”

“China's been very clear about their intent with regard to Taiwan. Equally, the United States has been clear about their intention toward Taiwan. Nobody wants to see conflict, but that really is a question for the Chinese.”

“Global regulators, banks and investors are making ideological rather than market-based investment decisions around coal, which will still have solid demand in the coming decades.”

“We've saved lives. We've saved livelihoods, but we must work together to ensure that Australians can reclaim the lives that they once had in this country. We'll be working towards complete quarantine-free travel for certain countries, such as New Zealand, when it is safe to do so.”

“We stand here together, in the Indo-Pacific region, a region that we wish to be always free from coercion, where the sovereign rights of all nations are respected and where disputes are settled peacefully and accordance with international law.”

“I do have an aspiration to make sure that we can increase the numbers of [US] troops through the rotations. The air capability will be enhanced, our maritime capability enhanced and certainly the force posture enhanced.”

“The reason for all of this is clear - China. After years of bullying and trade hostility, and watching regional neighbours like the Philippines see encroachment into their waters, Australia didn't have a choice. And nor did the US or UK.”

“Let me be clear: Australia is not seeking to acquire nuclear weapons or establish a civil nuclear capability. And we will continue to meet all our nuclear non-proliferation obligations.”

“While Australia faces near-term challenges due to the lockdowns we expect growth will simply be pushed back by six months, with the economy rebounding in late 2021 and growing strongly in 2022.”

“Our two biggest cities have been failed by the federal government, which simply did not do the work to secure the vaccines we need.”

“I think as great partners, friends, allies and indeed family, there will be those far from here [China] who would seek to divide us and they will not succeed.”

“This is an outrageous response. Australians have a right of return to their own country. The government should be looking for ways to safely quarantine Australians returning from India, instead of focusing their efforts on prison sentences and harsh punishments.”

“The government does not make these decisions lightly. However, it is critical the integrity of the Australian public health and quarantine systems is protected and the number of COVID-19 cases in quarantine facilities is reduced to a manageable level.”

“When governments come together at the highest level, this shows a whole new level of cooperation to create a new anchor for peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific.”

“Bing is not going to be able to compete with Google in terms of quality out of the blocks. Australians might have to relearn how to use search.”
