Australia's new PM Anthony Albanese was warmly welcomed by the Quad leaders at his first summit in Tokyo, a day after he assumed office, with US President Joe Biden joking and saying "even if you fall asleep while you're here, it's OK." Albanese, 59, was sworn in at a brief ceremony lasting in Government House, Canberra on Monday. Australia's new PM took office a few hours before making a long flight to attend the Quad summit.
