Valuable discussions in Algiers with @Algeria_MFA and @AfripolA. Terrorism crosses borders, and so must our cooperation. Australia values working with African partners and regional institutions to meet this shared challenge.

Thank you @AUCTCentre for welcoming me in Algiers. Australia values the AU’s leadership in countering terrorism.
Today, @AUCTCentre was honoured to welcome Gemma Huggins (@AusAmbCT), Ambassador and Special Envoy of the Australian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for counter-terrorism.
The visit signals a shared commitment by the #AU and @DFTAT to build a more strategic partnership against terrorism across Africa—linking political dialogue with practical cooperation and coordinated action.
Agreed during Commissioner Bankole’s Special Visit Program to Australia (@Bankole_Adeoye), the working visit provides a foundation for sustained engagement and concrete next steps.View quoted post on X
At the 11th Australia-Indonesia Counter-Terrorism Consultations, 🇦🇺 & 🇮🇩 reaffirmed our commitment to countering terrorism & extremism, including youth & online radicalisation. Our longstanding partnership remains critical to the safety and security of our region. @BNPTRI
Delighted to host @_AfricanUnion Commissioner for Political Affairs, Peace and Security, Bankole Adeoye, in Australia this week. We stand united with African partners in countering terrorism and violent extremism #counterterrorism
Great to join the panel at #ADU in Perth on sustainable outcomes from artisanal mining in Africa. Formalising ASM isn’t just an economic issue - it can help disrupt terrorism financing through stronger licensing, traceability and gold supply chains.
