The Federal Opposition welcomes the appointment of Greg Moriarty AO to take on the role of Australia’s Ambassador to the United States.
The Liberal Party has always stood for a strong alliance with the United States and Mr Moriarty has a proven track record of advancing Australia’s national interest under both Labor and Liberal governments. He has served Australia in a distinguished career spanning diplomatic appointments and key roles in Australia’s defence and intelligence communities.
In this period of global uncertainty a strong alliance with the United States of America is more important than ever. Mr Moriarty is a safe pair of hands to advance Australia’s interest, build this relationship and ensure AUKUS reaches its full potential.
