From johnmenadue.com: The author discusses the implications of Donald Trump’s recent actions that have undermined U.S. alliances, particularly with Ukraine, and how this affects Australia’s foreign policy and domestic politics.

The article notes a divergence in responses between Australian political leaders, with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese taking a firmer stance in support of Ukraine compared to Opposition Leader Peter Dutton’s ambiguity.

It also points out the rising concerns over the reliability of the U.S. as an ally and the potential need for Australia to reassess its defence strategies and alliances in light of Trump’s presidency.
