Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has criticised the government for abstaining from voting a United Nations motion for a truce between Israel and Hamas, labelling the prime minister "weak".
Yeah, it’s a mess. Probably the most sensible response given the US being such a close ally, but also not wanting to oppose the ceasefire too strongly (given Penny Wong’s comments previously in particular).
I haven’t read the article and I’m not following the situation at all, but that tends to be the reason behind most things. If the yanks say no to something, most of the world is generally expected to follow suit, or at the very least not oppose them

Dunno how accurate the article is, but the reason seems to be:
“US voted no”

Maybe read the article. There’s more to it than that.
No thanks. It’s the same shit every time
