The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson today congratulated Anthony Albanese on his victory in the parliamentary elections in Australia, stating that he “looks forward” to working together.
“Congratulations to Anthony Albanese on your election as Prime Minister of Australia,” Downing Street said in a statement. “Our country has a long common history and a bright future,” Johnson said, adding that Britain and Australia are “prosperous democracies that share the same ideas” and work daily to make the world a better, safer, greener world. ».
Britain, Australia and the United States signed the AUKUS security pact in September 2021 to address China’s growing influence in the Pacific. Britain has also signed a post-Brexit trade agreement with Australia.
“We reap the rewards of the free trade agreement, our partnership with AUKUS and the unparalleled relationship of our peoples, knowing that the only distance that separates us is geography,” Johnson added.
