Australian British Chamber of Commerce CEO David McCredie says it was “really useful” for Australia to be able to get two of its biggest allies - the United Kingdom and the United States - together for trilateral talks.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison met with US President Joe Biden and UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson for the unique three-way discussion in Cornwall where leaders have gathered for the G7 plus talks.
“I think it was interesting the way the trilateral talks were framed,” Mr McCredie said.
“I think it is actually probably really useful for Australia to get two of our biggest allies in the room together and have those open discussions in a forum which is just a little bit tighter than perhaps with other G7 nations.
“We know that over the last 100 or so years we’ve fought in a lot of conflicts together. There are a lot of shared values and principles that we have that sit underneath that”.
