Australia has a clear national interest in seeing Russia fail in its aggression against Ukraine. I look forward to continuing to work with the Australian Government to advance this shared objective.

Does Australia still stand with Ukraine? The reality no longer matches the rhetoric
In the past 12 months, the Australian government has made no new contributions of any kind to Ukraine – military, humanitarian or reconstruction. It’s baffling.

I trust the Aus Gov’s ability to find a way to stop importing petrol and diesel derived from Russian oil. I also hope that BP, Viva, and other importers of Russian oil products take their ESG commitments seriously — something they seem to be disregarding entirely.

Russian attacks on Kyiv have sadly become routine — no longer even making international headlines. Last night, RU launched over 100 drones and 9 ballistic missiles at my home city. The skies were filled with smoke, lives were lost, and many were injured. This relentless campaign of terror must stop.
