The Quad leaders may not meet again this year, but that doesn’t mean the partnership is any weaker than it used to be.

The Trump administration is likely hoping the US can be less involved in the Middle East after this war, if it results in a different Iran.
Âgé de 31 ans, Kirk a été abattu alors qu’il s’exprimait dans une université de l’Utah. Il était une figure très influente de la politique conservatrice.
The 31-year-old, who was shot and killed while speaking at a university in Utah, was a highly influential figure in conservative politics.
The former US president was widely criticised for his time in government, but his work on leaving office came to exemplify what a post-presidential life could entail.
Le programme de Donald Trump manque de consistance et de cohérence. Prédire ce que sera son futur mandat est donc loin d'être une entreprise aisée, mais des lignes générales peuvent être annoncées.
Trump’s policy agenda has lacked both consistency and coherence. Trying to guess what’s coming next is a fool’s errand.
With just a few weeks until the presidential election, the polls have both sides in a dead heat – so now the result may hinge on who comes out to vote.
Despite all the drama, the race for the White House remains remarkably close, with the polls shifting little in recent weeks.
The Conversation’s expert panel believed Kamala Harris had more to prove – and Donald Trump more to lose – in the debate. Here were the moments that mattered.
A relatively unknown political figure, Walz will now be defined by both the Harris and Trump campaigns in starkly different lights.
Harris aporta a la carrera contra Donald Trump sus admiradas habilidades para el debate como fiscal de carrera, pero también una actuación irregular como vicepresidenta.
Harris bring admired debate skills as a career prosecutor but also a patchy performance as vice president to the race against Trump.
The US is relying more on its alliances in the Middle East in order to pull back a bit. This will likely continue no matter who is in the White House next year.
The former president’s political obituary has been written many times over the past decade. Yet his support among Republicans has rarely dipped below 70%.
Term limits for presidents were only written into the Constitution after the second world war. And members of Congress can still serve as long as they wish.
Trump’s indictment on serious charges is no “witch-hunt”, but his ability to keep attracting supporters remains undimmed.
Biden believes these sorts of compromises help restore trust and optimism about the US government actually being capable of responsible governing.
Only three presidents in the last 50 years have announced their re-election campaigns with similarly low approval ratings. But Biden could face an even more unpopular opponent in 2024.
The ‘“red wave” of Republican wins that many predicted has not materialised. Counting continues, but Democrats may hold the Senate while Republicans are favoured for a slim majority in the House.
The investigation into the January 6 Capitol riots asks: is the nation’s well-being ensured by allegiance to its laws or its leaders? The founding fathers chose the former – could we say the same for Trump’s inner circle?
Australia has world-class research but low rates of research commercialisation by global standards. The scale and cultural focus of the government’s plan mean it could have an impact on this problem.
Caroline Kennedy’s nomination follows months of speculation and promises to fill a position left vacant for almost a year.
The federal government is right to focus on improving Australian universities’ success rate in commercialising research, but can take specific steps itself to help achieve this.
As President Joe Biden said on announcing the US troop withdrawal by September, ‘our reasons for remaining in Afghanistan have become increasingly unclear’.
