In some cases, he found the papers established contextual truth, which is also a defense under Australia’s Defamation Act. “Today is a day of some small justice for the Afghan victims of Ben Roberts-Smith,” said McKenzie. Ali Jan was a husband … He was kicked off a cliff by Ben Roberts-Smith, and he was murdered with Ben Roberts-Smith’s participation. Claims of violent acts committed by elite troops were echoed in the Brereton Report, a four-year investigation into the alleged war crimes in Afghanistan released in November 2020. The responsibility for these atrocities does not end with Ben Roberts-Smith,” he said.

[1/6] Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Australian Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles, Australian Defence Industry Minister Pat Conroy and Chief of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) Angus Campbell speak to the media at a news conference after the release of the Defence Strategic Review at Parliament House in Canberra, Australia April 24, 2023. AAP/Lukas Coch/via REUTERSCANBERRA, April 24 (Reuters) - Australia's government will prioritise long-range precision strike, domestic production of guided weapons, and diplomacy - key points of a review released Monday recommending the country's biggest defence shakeup since World War Two. Australia must also strengthen defence cooperation with Japan, India, Pacific and South East Asian nations, the review said. The review found Australia's defence force was "not fit for purpose", he said. The navy needs more smaller vessels with long-range strike weapons, with details decided after an independent analysis this year, the report said.
The review examined how Australia could better integrate with its AUKUS partners the United States and Britain, as well as other allies, the government has said. Changing that equation is crucial to the future of Australia's military, they said. Campbell said Australia's defence forces would enhance how they could operate alongside partners, but has ruled out foreign bases on its soil and will always retain control of its forces. Even as it beefs up its military, Australia says China will remain an important trade partner. One of the world's top LNG exporters, Australia's top gas customers last year were Japan, China and South Korea.
SYDNEY, April 11 (Reuters) - A possible intelligence leak by the United States was a "serious" incident, Angus Campbell, the chief of Australia's Defence Force, said on Tuesday, adding that the U.S. was engaging with its partners to understand the consequences. The AUKUS partnership with Britain and the United States for Australia to acquire nuclear-powered submarines was the most prominent example of engagement, he said, but Australia was also working with Pacific island and South East Asian nations. Asked whether Australia had a role in a conflict over Taiwan, Campbell said, "Anything that undermines the security, stability and prosperity of the Indo-Pacific region in which we live is of interest to Australia." The war in Ukraine showed that there was no way to predict how any conflict would unfold, Campbell said.

''Poporului afgan, în numele forţei de apărare australiene, îmi cer sincer şi fără rezerve scuze pentru orice acţiune greşită a soldaţilor australieni'', a declarat generalul Angus Campbell. "Unele patrule au încălcat legea, reguli au fost încălcate, întâmplări inventate, au fost spuse minciuni şi deţinuţi ucişi", a adăugat comandantul armatei australiene, citat de Agerpres. Cei 25 de membri ai forţelor speciale acuzaţi de erori în 23 de incidente au lăsat o ''pată'' asupra regimentului lor, asupra forţelor armate şi a Australiei, a adăugat el, recomandând urmărirea penală pentru crime de război. După atacurile teroriste din 11 septembrie 2001, peste 26.000 de soldaţi australieni au fost trimişi în Afganistan pentru a lupta alături de forţele SUA şi aliate împotriva talibanilor, a Al-Qaida şi a altor grupări islamiste.
