(The Guardian) Trump to meet Australian prime minister in October in Washington
President Donald Trump will meet Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese on 20 October in Washington, the White House and Albanese said on Tuesday, the first summit between the security allies since Trump’s second election.
The two leaders have much to discuss, including the multi-billion dollar Aukus project, also involving Britain, to provide Australia with nuclear-powered attack submarines to counter China’s ambitions in the Indo-Pacific. The project is now under Pentagon review.
“Australia and the United States are great partners. I expect it to be very constructive,” Albanese told reporters in New York on Tuesday, confirming the meeting.
