It was wonderful to attend the
@USEmbAustralia reception celebrating the 250th anniversary of American independence.
The evening was a great opportunity to personally thank Prime Minister
@AlboMP for the Australian Government’s $100 million contribution to PURL, share a farewell hug with Chargé d’Affaires Erika Olson, catch up with the Chief of Army and reconnect with many friends from government, industry, and the diplomatic community.
Events like this are a reminder of the strong partnerships and friendships that underpin our shared commitment to security, prosperity, and democratic values.
