Incoming Prime Minister Anthony Albanese vows to reset Australia's relations with the world, particularly with regard to climate change, as he races to form a government in time for a key Tokyo summit
Incoming Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has vowed to reset Australia's relations with the world and sweep aside the country's reputation as a climate laggard, as he raced to form a government in time for a key Tokyo summit.
"I do want to change the country," he said as he waited to see whether his Labor party can command a majority in parliament or will need help from climate-minded independents. Albanese and key ministers are expected to be sworn in on Monday, just in time to attend a summit with Japanese, Indian and US leaders - the so-called Quad.
