b'Allan and Darren begin this episode by stepping back from a very busy first two months of foreign policy for the new government. If one were to build a model of the making of Australian foreign policy, what could we learn from from this particular case study and how would it stand out? Turning to events, the analysis begins with PM Albanese\\u2019s trip to Europe for the NATO summit, then turns to the travels and speeches of FM Wong and DM Marles, including Wong\\u2019s important meeting with her Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on the sidelines of the G20 foreign ministers\\u2019 meeting in Bali. Next they turn to the recent Pacific Islands Forum meeting in Suva and the withdrawal of Kiribati from the grouping, and finish with a discussion of the latest Lowy Institute Poll.\\nWe thank Annabel Howard for audio editing and Rory Stenning for composing our theme music.\\nRelevant links\\nPenny Wong, \\u201cKeynote address in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia\\u201d, 29 June 2022: https://www.foreignminister.gov.au/minister/penny-wong/speech/keynote-address-kuala-lumpur-malaysia\\nPenny Wong, \\u201cSpecial lecture to the International Institute for Strategic Studies - A shared future: Australia, ASEAN and Southeast Asia\\u201d, 6 July 2022: https://www.foreignminister.gov.au/minister/penny-wong/speech/special-lecture-international-institute-strategic-studies-shared-future-australia-asean-and-southeast-asia\\nPenny Wong, \\u201cMeeting with China\\u2019s State Councilor and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Wang Yi\\u201d, Media release, 8 July 2022: https://www.foreignminister.gov.au/minister/penny-wong/media-release/meeting-chinas-state-councilor-and-minister-foreign-affairs-wang-yi\\n\\u201cWang Yi Meets with Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong\\u201d, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the PRC\\u201d, 9 July 2022: https://www.fmprc.gov.cn/mfa_eng/zxxx_662805/202207/t20220710_10718115.html\\nPress Conference (Transcript), Prime Minister and Treasurer, 11 July 2022: https://www.pm.gov.au/media/press-conference-parliament-house-canberra\\nJocelyn Chey, \\u201cWhen words matter: Reviewing the Wong-Wang meeting\\u201d, Pearls and Irritations, 13 July 2022: https://johnmenadue.com/when-words-matter-reviewing-the-wong-wang-meeting/\\nRichard Marles, \\u201cSpeech: National Defence College New Delhi, India\\u201d, 22 June 2022: https://www.minister.defence.gov.au/minister/rmarles/speeches/speech-national-defence-college-new-delhi-india\\nRichard Marles, \\u201cCenter for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS)\\u201d, 12 July 2022: https://www.minister.defence.gov.au/minister/rmarles/speeches/address-center-strategic-and-international-studies-csis\\nLowy Institute Poll: https://poll.lowyinstitute.org/\\nBruce Miller, \\u201cFor all his nationalism, Abe was a true globalist and statesman\\u201d, Australian Financial Review, 10 July 2022: https://www.afr.com/world/asia/for-all-his-nationalism-abe-was-a-true-globalist-and-statesman-20220710-p5b0g4\\nHugh White, \\u201cSleepwalk to war: Australia\\u2019s Unthinking Alliance with America\\u201d, Quarterly Essay 86, June 2022: https://www.quarterlyessay.com.au/essay/2022/06/sleepwalk-to-war\\n\\u201cGurrumul - Bayini ft.
