Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese spoke with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, following the latter's announcement about recognizing a Palestinian state in September. Albanese claimed that he reiterated his support for a two-state solution in the conversation and said that Starmer "agreed with him on the importance of momentum to achieve a ceasefire, release all hostages and accelerate aid delivery." Meanwhile, Australian Treasurer Jim Chalmers said in an interview with ABC News that "Hamas involvement in governance and the handling of hostages pose an obstacle for Australia, but it's not a matter of 'if', but 'when'."
