The 43rd Australia-EU Inter-Parliamentary Meeting (IPM) took place on 2 December 2024 in Brussels, co-chaired by DANZ Chair, Mr Seán Kelly (EPP, Ireland) and Hon Anne Stanley MP, leading the Delegation from the Australian Parliament. While security is further degenerating in the Pacific as well as in Europe and Middle East, democracies are urged to further enhance cooperation to defend freedoms, multilateralism and peace based on justice. In this challenging context, the parliaments of Australia and of the European Union discussed a wide range of crucial topics, including Ukraine and Taiwan, China and climate change, connectivity and rules based trade.
