About this episode
As the situation between Israel and Iran continues to escalate, speculation is growing the US will get involved — and there's also been a notable change in the language from the Australian Government.
Shifting from urging restraint and de-escalation from both parties, Foreign Minister Penny Wong has now called for Iran to return to the negotiating table. So, what's behind the change?
And after returning from his whirlwind G7 trip, Anthony Albanese hasn't ruled out a heading to the NATO summit next week. He's hoping to secure a meeting with Donald Trump on the sidelines. But is that a risky move?
Patricia Karvelas and Mel Clarke break it all down on The Party Room.
