Kevin Rudd will be stepping down as Ambassador to the United States of America at the end of March, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced this morning.
Rudd will become Global President of international relations think tank, The Asia Society, which he headed between 2021 and 2023.
Albanese confirmed that the decision to leave the position a year early was “entirely” of Rudd’s own accord, praising the former Prime Minister’s work in advancing economic relations between the two nations, as well as his work on the AUKUS submarine deal.
