Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese reiterated his country’s call for a ceasefire in Gaza during his address to the UN General Assembly and also called out Iran for attacks on the Jewish community, saying there is no place for anti-Semitism in the world. “For decades, leaders have come to this podium in search of new words and new ways to call the world to action on a two-state solution,” said Mr Albanese, whose country formally recognized Palestine in recent days. “Australia is calling for a ceasefire, for the immediate release of the hostages, for aid to flow to those in desperate need, and for the terrorists of Hamas to have no role in Gaza’s future,”he added.
