Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:26): AUKUS is about Australia's interests. It's about Australia's interests. It's about what are our interests in an era that is increasingly complex and contested. It is a capability that goes to Australia's interests, and I would argue that it is a partnership in all three countries' interests. We are very clear. We make decisions in Australia's national interest, and that includes working with others. That is what AUKUS is, but that is not the sum of all that we do. Senator, you have made your views on AUKUS very clear. You are opposed to it. You are entitled to that. Senator Allman-Payne: A point of order: could I please request that answers be directed through the chair? The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Allman-Payne. I will remind the minister to— Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Order! Minister Wong, direct your responses to me. Senator WONG: The Australian Greens political party have made it clear that they have double standards when it comes to standing orders in this place. They want standing orders for them, but they are not prepared to respect them for others or for the rest of the chamber. We all know that. Here we go again! Senator Whish-Wilson: A point of order on relevance: it's obviously easier to uphold standing orders than it is international law in relation to Gaza. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Whish-Wilson. Order! Order! I cautioned the chamber earlier about making a point of view, not a political statement, or not adding to the question yourself. I'm not sure if you were here during the moment I said that, Senator Whish-Wilson, but it does apply to you. Political points are not points of order. Senator WONG: Our decision to continue to invest in AUKUS is about Australia's national interest, and we stand by it. The PRESIDENT: Senator Shoebridge, second supplementary?
