Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has expressed Australia’s support for the leaders’ statement coming from the G-7 summit against China asserting its disputed claims in the Indo-Pacific region through force and coercion.
“We have said for some time that China’s activity, and we expressed concern for ourselves as well, the chafing of one of our aircraft, the other activities that we’ve seen has provided concern. We’ve expressed concern in the past, we'll continue to do so,” he told reporters in Japan on Sunday.
