Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) | Hansard source

I reject the assertion in the question. Australia and Japan have never been closer or more strategically aligned, and my government has taken our special strategic partnership to new heights. During the recent visit by Prime Minister Takaichi, we announced substantial outcomes, including a joint declaration on economic security cooperation, signalling our resolve to support each other in the face of economic coercion, including to consult each other on economic security contingencies.
