Mötet kom efter nyheter om att en amerikansk ubåt sänkte ett iranskt krigsfartyg i Indiska oceanen och att Turkiet sa att NATO:s försvar avbröt en ballistisk robot som sköts från Iran innan den kom in i Turkiet luftrum. " Han tillade: "Vi betonar att det inte kan uppnås om vi inte är i en position där Irans förmåga att skaffa ett kärnvapen, utveckla ett kärnvapen och exportera terrorism är avslutad. " Carney sa att sexnationers Gulf Cooperation Council, som "visar enorm återhållsamhet", borde bli inblandade i deeskaleringsprocessen.
" Han tillade: "Vi ser Gulfstater, som inte har varit inblandade, attackerade över hela linjen, inklusive attacker på civila och turistområden också. Men vi vill också se målen uppnådda. " På fråga av en reporter kunde Carney inte utesluta att den kanadensiska militären någonsin blir inblandad i konflikten.
We want to see a broader de-escalation of these hostilities with a broader group of countries than just the direct belligerents involved.
Han sa: "Du har ställt en grundläggande hypotetisk fråga i en konflikt som kan sprida sig mycket brett," och tillade: "Så man kan aldrig kategoriskt utesluta deltagande. " De specifika åtgärderna eller stegen som Kanada och Australien vidtar för att uppnå deeskalering i Iran-kriget har inte specificerats. Carney är i Australien på ett handelsinriktat, treländersbesök som började i Indien förra veckan.
Han talade i det australiensiska parlamentet på torsdag och kommer att flyga till Japan på fredag.
We stress that that cannot be achieved unless we're in a position that Iran's ability to acquire a nuclear weapon, develop a nuclear weapon, and to export terrorism, is ended. So that process must lead to those outcomes.
Carney said the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council, which were 'showing tremendous restraint,' should become involved in the de-escalation process.
The world wants to see a de-escalation and wants to see Iran cease to spread the destinations of its attacks.
We're seeing Gulf states, that have not been involved, attacked across the board, including the attacks on civilian and tourist areas as well. But we also want to see the objectives achieved. I want to see the possibility of Iran getting a nuclear weapon removed once and for all.
You've asked a fundamental hypothetical in a conflict that can spread very broadly. So one can never categorically rule out participation. We will stand by our allies when it makes sense.
The era of ever-expanding free trade is over.
Albanese said the latest trade challenges were unlike traditional barriers or 'sanctions tied to strategic competition', in a veiled swipe at both the United States and China.
It goes deeper than that. This is about ongoing threats to the safety of global shipping routes, and the physical destruction of oil and gas infrastructure across the Middle East.
So, even if we were to wake up tomorrow to the welcome news that this conflict was over, there would still be a long economic tail to reckon with.
All of this underlines a simple reality. The stable, predictable world of ever-expanding free trade is gone – and it will not be returning any time soon.
Over the years, I acknowledge that from time to time we've had our differences on policy, just as the companies in this room are not always on the same page as each other. And because we do not have to agree on every aspect of every issue to build a constructive relationship, in the national interest.
That's what matters – especially right now. In uncertain times, Australians expect all of us to put the national interest first, to put our country first.
Carney referred to Australia and Canada as 'strategic cousins' and warned of the 'global architecture now breaking down from consecutive crises'.
