BBC Chinese Service reported today (May 3rd): "Diplomatic policy is rarely the focus in Australian elections, but US President Donald Trump has changed this. Some analysis suggests that similar to last week's Canadian election, Trump's style may help the Australian Labor Party retain its governing position, as voters tend to support the current government in times of crisis."
[Insight] Comment: It might not only be because of Trump, but also because Albanese appears more stable and makes fewer mistakes. Recent opposition leader Dutton has been forced to apologize for his remarks or change unpopular policy promises multiple times. Recent polls show that Albanese is steadily leading over the center-right opposition led by Dutton, and he might become the first prime minister in 20 years to win re-election in Australia.
