What happened

Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

Anthony Albanese is leading Australia's delegation to the United Nations General Assembly in New York as part of a week-long visit to the United States (September 18 to September 24, 2026). During the trip, Albanese will also meet with Tim Cook at Apple headquarters in California. The discussions focus on parental control measures, which are inspired by Australia's world-first social media ban for users under 16 years old.
