US President Joe Biden and Australian PM Anthony Albanese signed a Climate, Critical Minerals and Clean Energy Transformation Compact in March 2023 on the sidelines of the G7.
The Compact aims to coordinate both countries' climate and clean energy initiatives in the Indo-Pacific, with a particular focus on electric vehicle supply chains — especially the critical minerals needed in battery production — in addition to green hydrogen production.
In this Daily Mail Australia article, Samuel Garrett, a research associate at the United States Studies Centre, says Donald Trump will be very likely to walk away from the Compact.
