US President Joe Biden and Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese toast during a State Dinner at the South Lawn of White House in Washington, DC on October 25, 2023. US President Joe Biden and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese toasted Wednesday their shared stand on Israel, Ukraine and China during a lavish state visit aimed at deepening their countries’ century-old alliance.
The visit underscored the importance Washington places on longtime ally Australia as a cornerstone of its strategy against an increasingly assertive Beijing in the Asia-Pacific region. Guests included violinist Itzhak Perlman, actor John Leguizamo and rock band the B-52s — whose performance at the dinner was cancelled because of fears their party music would be inappropriate given events elsewhere.At a joint press conference with Biden earlier, Albanese said the bond between the two countries was crucial in an “uncertain world.”
The trip also included announcements on technology and climate change, along with plans to boost internet links and maritime infrastructure in Pacific island nations where China has been trying to expand its influence. China’s rise however remains a long-term concern for the two allies, even as they both seek something of a reset with Beijing.
