Participants exchanged views on Australia\u2019s new National Defence Strategy, the Papua New Guinea\u2013Australia Mutual Defence Treaty, and policies related to rare earths and critical minerals processing, among other themes.<\/p>\n<p>API was honored to host USSC researchers and JADE Fellows at the International House of Japan and extends its sincere appreciation to all participants for their thoughtful contributions.
