Julian Leeser welcomed the Chief Rabbi and his wife, Elka Inna, to the office along with Scott Morrison, a proven friend of Ukraine and Senator David Van, chair of the Parliamentary Friends of Ukraine.

Julian Leeser told J-Wire: “The war on Ukraine is a war on free peoples everywhere. Australia’s support of Ukraine is whole-hearted, and it is bi-partisan.

Time to talk

As a member of the Australian parliament, I reaffirmed Australia’s commitment to freedom, liberty and the rights of the people of Ukraine to live free of fear.

I was honoured to host the Rabbi and Rebbetzin and I promised to visit them in Kyiv in the future.”
