Michael Fullilove from the Lowy Institute says Kamala Harris is likely to adhere more closely to traditional US foreign policy compared with Donald Trump if she wins the presidential election. He notes that Harris has expressed support for the AUKUS defence pact with Australia and the UK, so it is likely to proceed under a Harris administration. However, Fullilove adds that the US government’s stance on Israel may change if Harris becomes president, given that she has been more supportive of Palestine than President Joe Biden. Delegates at the Democratic National Convention in mid-August will decide whether to formally endorse her nomination as the party’s presidential candidate.
