“There has been a shift in the previous stand on demands to cease the attacks and for additional humanitarian allocations,” he told a press conference at the end of his six-day visit to Berlin and Hamburg.Foreign Minister Penny Wong said yesterday that Australia, which froze funding to UNRWA in January, would increase aid for the besieged Gaza as she expressed horror at the deteriorating humanitarian situation there.
During a bilateral meeting between the two leaders ahead of the Asean-Australia summit in Melbourne in early March, Anwar had urged Albanese to restore UNRWA funding in Gaza as the ‘most effective’ way to help civilians.On calls by Indonesia’s Ambassador to Malaysia Datuk Hermono to review the memorandum of understanding concerning formal sector workers, Anwar said there are certain mechanisms and normal processes that need to be respected.
