Joint statement: Florence Parly, Minister of Defence of the French Republic We have held our first quarterly meeting to review the progress of the Future Submarine Program following our productive discussion in Munich in February 2020.
Further to my public statement issued on Monday evening following the ABC Four Corners program, Killing Field, I advise that I have today made a formal referral to the Commissioner of the Australian Federal Police regarding the incident involving the alleged serious criminal conduct of so-called Soldier C.
I am deeply disturbed by what has been aired in tonight’s Four Corners report. I have been steadfast in my support for the IGADF Inquiry which is investigating allegations about the conduct of Australia’s Special Forces in Afghanistan over the period 2005 to 2016.

I am very pleased to be asked by Prime Minister Scott Morrison to serve as Australia’s Minister for Foreign Affairs. I look forward to continuing to advance Australia’s interests around the world, following the outstanding work of my friend and colleague the Hon Julie Bishop MP over the past five years.
It is with great sadness that I acknowledge the passing of Senator John McCain. There have been few greater friends of Australia than Senator McCain. He was apassionate supporter of the Australia-United States Alliance, and a champion of ourbilateral defence relationship as Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Joint statement between UK and Australia, following the tenth Australia-UK Ministerial Meeting (AUKMIN) held in Edinburgh on 20 July 2018.
It is completely unacceptable to use a flag of this nature. This is completely at odds with the values of the Australian Defence Force and the tens of thousands of ADF personnel who have served with distinction in Afghanistan.
Australians can be proud of the significant contribution the ADF has made over many years to combat the Taliban and make Afghanistan a safer place for its people and the rest of the world.

The Government has been notified by the Australian Submarine Corporation of a reduction of its workforce as work on the Air Warfare Destroyers winds down. The slowdown of work for the ASC is the direct result of Labor’s failure to commission a single vessel from an Australian yard.
