This week Prime Minister Anthony Albanese travelled to Washington, DC, for meetings with US President Joe Biden.

Top of the agenda for discussion was the AUKUS submarines deal. Albanese also wanted to talk about the trade of critical minerals, commodities which represent a growing export market for Australia.

Back on the home front, Indigenous leaders emerged from their week of silence following the failed Voice to Parliament referendum.

Bruce Wolpe, senior fellow at the United States Studies Centre and federal political correspondent Paul Sakkal join Jacqueline Maley to discuss the week in politics.
