Centre of Independent Studies' Tom Switzer says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s stance on US strikes in Iran does not damage Australia’s credibility, nor does it isolate Australia from the world.

By Kirsty Needham SYDNEY (Reuters) -Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Monday that Canberra supported the United States strike on Iran and called for de-escalation and a return to diplomacy.

Anthony Albanese has reiterated that his government backs the US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites but that it does not want to see an “escalation and a full-scale war” following the attack.
