Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has doubled down on his position on the war in Gaza amid a diplomatic spat with Israel.
After Australia’s recent decision to recognize a Palestinian state, Albanese was dubbed a “weak politician” by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
On Israel, Albanese said, “increasingly there is global concern… because people want to see an end to the cycle of violence.”
Australia’s Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke backed Albanese’s stance too, saying, “Strength is not measured by how many people you can blow up or how many children you can leave hungry.”
“Strength is much better measured by exactly what Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has done, which is when there is a decision that we know Israel won’t like, he goes straight to Benjamin Netanyahu, he has the conversation, he says exactly what we are intending to do,” Burke added.
