Australia's credibility not damaged from siding with US strikes on Iran
Centre of Independent Studies' Tom Switzer says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's stance on US strikes in Iran does not damage Australia's credibility, nor does it isolate Australia from the world.
'Bear in mind … many nations around the world, including US allies, Japan, South Korea, have not given unqualified and unconditional support to these US strikes,' Mr Switzer told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
'Many Americans, from left to right, Democrats and Republicans, are highly anxious that this could drag the United States once again into a forever war.
'I don't think that Canberra's stance really damages Australian credibility or isolates us in the world, especially if there is a ceasefire.'
