Anthony Albanese, prime minister of Australia, in an interview with the newspaper “The Australian,” said: “I feel disgust toward the Islamic Republic regime, and it is the people of Iran who will determine their own future.”

Albanese said he intends to discuss ending the war with Iran with Donald Trump, the president of the United States, on the sidelines of the ASEAN summit in Manila. He said he would pursue this matter with a respectful, diplomatic and constructive approach.

According to Australian media, the Australian government wants a ceasefire, an end to the war through negotiations, and preventing fees from being charged for ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
