Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has responded to revelations that divers from the HMAS Toowoomba were injured by a sonar pulse from a Chinese warship in international waters last week. Albanese has criticised the Chinese vessel’s conduct, and stated that the federal government had made strong objections to China regarding the incident. However, Albanese has declined to comment on whether he raised the issue with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the recent APEC summit in San Francisco. Kevin Rudd, Australia’s ambassador to the US, says it is longstanding practice not to comment on the content of conversations between leaders.
