Few people understand the Australia-US relationship better than Kevin Rudd. Former Prime Minister, Foreign Minister, and Australia’s Ambassador to the United States from 2023 to 2026, Rudd brings rare first-hand experience to one of the most consequential questions in Australian foreign policy: what does the Trump administration mean for the alliance?
Speaking at the AIIA ACT Branch Annual Dinner, Rudd offers a frank and informed assessment of where Australia-US relations stand, the pressures reshaping the alliance, and what Australia needs to do to protect its strategic interests in an increasingly uncertain world.
A must-watch for anyone following Australian foreign policy, the Indo-Pacific, and the future of the rules-based international order.
