PM Anthony Albanese says leaders of Australia, the US, India and Japan will instead meet at the G7 summit in Japan this weekend. A summit of the Quad countries scheduled to be held in Sydney next week will be postponed after US President Joe Biden pulled out because of debt ceiling negotiations in Washington, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says. Albanese said it was “disappointing” that Biden decided he could not come for the May 24 summit, which Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida were also supposed to attend. Biden “expressed very much his disappointment” at being unable to come to the Sydney summit and to the Australian capital, Canberra, to address parliament, Albanese said. “Prime Minister Modi will be here next week for a bilateral meeting with myself,” Albanese told the Australian Broadcasting Corp. “He will also have business meetings.
