We're making sure our alliance and partnership benefits Americans and Australians alike, and our collaboration through the Quad is a force for a more stable, secure, prosperous world.

[Ambassador Sergio Gor @USAmbIndia]

Quad Foreign Ministers’ Meeting delivers strong, concrete results. From enhanced maritime security to new initiatives on maritime security, port infrastructure, critical minerals, and energy resilience - here are the top deliverables from this round of Quad cooperation. Thread below. #QuadFMM

*Maritime Security*

The Quad Foreign Ministers’ Meeting advanced major maritime security initiatives. New initiatives on maritime surveillance, domain awareness, and coast guard coordination will strengthen regional security, improve information-sharing, and support a free and open Indo-Pacific. #QuadFMM

*Port Infrastructure*

A big step for Pacific Islands! Quad partners will collaborate with Fiji to advance critical port infrastructure - the first joint Quad project of its kind in the region. #QuadFMM

*Critical Minerals Deliverable*

Quad partners announce the Critical Minerals Framework! The Framework will strengthen critical mineral supply chains in mining, processing, and recycling. Coordination across the Quad helps reduce vulnerabilities and supports long-term economic security. #QuadFMM

*Energy and Fuel Security*

Energy security is national security. The Quad’s new Indo-Pacific Energy Security Initiative expands cooperation on technology, energy resilience, and emergency preparedness to support a more stable and secure region. @ENERGY to host a dedicated Quad Fuel Security Forum later this year. #QuadFMM

"Our partnership remains a cornerstone in ensuring a resilient and secure space domain." 🚀

It was a pleasure to welcome General B. Chance Saltzman, @SpaceForceCSO, @USSpaceForce, to Canberra and Sydney.

During his visit to Canberra, General Saltzman signed a Joint Statement of Intent with @CJC_ADF, LTGEN Susan Coyle, reaffirming the strong and enduring partnership between the US and Australia in the space domain, met with Admiral David Johnston AC, @CDF_Aust, and laid a wreath during a moving Last Post Ceremony at the @AWMemorial

In Sydney, General Saltzman spoke to @AmChamAU where he discussed @USSpaceForce priorities and the agency’s structure, strategic direction, and evolving role within the broader space domain and U.S. military.  While at @USSC, General Saltzman emphasized close collaboration with industry and the factors that drive innovation, capability development, and long-term investment.  He also took part in a traditional Aussie pastime - going to the AFL to watch the @sydneyswans take on @CollingwoodFC
