‘Weak display of leadership’: Australia abstains from United Nations vote
Opposition Leader Peter Dutton says Australia “should’ve been” standing with long-standing allies, including the United States, in supporting Israel.
Mr Dutton’s comments come after the United Nations General Assembly held a vote for a humanitarian truce between Israel and Gaza.
120 nations voted in favour, with 14 against, including the United States and Israel.
Australia and the United Kingdom abstained from voting.
“The Prime Minister had an opportunity here in the United Nations to send a clear message about our values and where we stand, and he failed that test,” Mr Dutton told Sky News Australia.
“It was a fragile display of leadership from the Prime Minister.”
