Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has touched down in New York as he prepares for a series of high-profile visits, including with U.S. President Joe Biden and fellow leaders of Quad nations’ India and Japan.
The meeting comes amid the backdrop of last week’s AUKUS announcement which saw the U.S. and UK governments commit to assisting Australia with the acquisition of nuclear-powered submarines, a move designed to counter further aggression from Beijing in the Indo-Pacific region.
