Sky News Australia
Shadow **** istant Minister for Treasury Dave Sharma says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s decision to recognise the state of Palestine is to the “detriment of our national interest”.
“The US has always followed and quite closely coordinated with us on our position on Middle East and Israel resolutions,” Mr Sharma told Sky News host Chris Kenny.
“It’s clear that we are no longer going to be there for them as a dependable ally, at least when it comes to these issues in the Middle East, and I think that’s to the detriment of our national interest.
“I don’t actually see anything that is being advanced for our national interest by this decision.”
