@PatConroy1 @dfat Everyone knows Australia's interests are just the US's interests Penny.

@PatConroy1 @dfat You really think Australia will have any say on peace & stability in our region? Your US mates have other ideas. War is their bread & butter. So if you think they'll listen to what Australia wants, see Julian Assange. #FreeJulianAssange

@PatConroy1 @dfat If you want a peaceful, stable and prosperous region stop AUKUS, stop echoing America's disinformation about China, and stop treating China like an enemy. 60+% of world leaders trust China and Russia that's why they are queueing up to join BRICS which is now bigger than the G7,

@PatConroy1 @dfat All the while his & ur government are war mongering with China, and giving Australia's complete sovereignty over to the USA. Stop AUKUS! Stop the dangerous continuation of LNP policy! Sellouts!

@PatConroy1 @dfat International military weapon development policy will reverse what you mentioned Conflict of policies moving in different directions Spending half a trillion on AUKUS yet homeless abounds and mass infrastructure delayed Peace initiatives? Assange?

@PatConroy1 @dfat What the hell has Pat Conroy, The Minister for Defence Industry got to do with a 'peaceful, stable region'? Minister for Defence Industry for Dogs sake. Not the Minister for Peace in the Region, the minister representing arms manufacturers and arms dealers. It's obscene.

@PatConroy1 @dfat 'interest in a peaceful, stable and prosperous region' while partnering with a dysfunctional, aggressive America. Pull the other leg ...

Supporting China’s reunification is upholding the post-war international order. It's hoped that certain leaders in the region will follow the trend of history and the will of their people, and make decisions that serve the fundamental and long-term interests of their own countries.

Historic day in Jigjiga. Thanks to the commitment of our visionary leader Prime Minister Dr. Abiy Ahmed, two critical development projects are today inaugurated in Somali Region, just months after 10 billion dollar worth of Mega Projects were launched in the Region. The Shabeeleey Resort, the first ever Tourism project, and the ~260m dollar Aysha’ wind power project will have immense positive impact on the lives of the people of the region and the country. On behalf of the government and people of the Somali Region, we thank the Prime Minister for the attention and priority he has given to a region long marginalized. Once considered a periphery, Jigjiga is positioning itself as a new important hub and center in the regional integration initiative of the Horn of Africa.

Iran is a despotic regime responsible for sponsoring terrorism, torturing its own people and poses a threat to the UK and its allies. In the UK House of Commons today, I pressed the Government to give a clear position on the actions it will take to protect our interests, work with our partners and to support British nationals affected in the region.

A great deal of history in our world will be written in the Indo-Pacific. And the partnership between the United States, Philippines, and Japan will make that story more prosperous, secure, and free.

Talks with the President of Syria, Ahmed al-Sharaa أحمد الشرع. We agreed to work together to bring greater security and more opportunities for development to our societies. We discussed the situation in the region and the prospects for changing it for the better. We also went over the circumstances of Russia’s war against Ukraine – I am grateful for the support. There is strong interest in exchanging military and security experience. I appreciate the words of respect for our people. We also touched on Ukraine’s role as a reliable supplier of food products and discussed joint opportunities to strengthen food security across the region. We understand very well the energy and infrastructure challenges Syria is currently facing. We are ready to work together to expand opportunities for both our countries and their people.
