Australia's Anthony Albanese claimed a historic second term as prime minister on Saturday in a dramatic comeback against once-resurgent conservatives that was powered by voters' concerns about the influence of US President Donald Trump.

Aussie PM wins 2nd term, UAE leaders greet victor

President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan sent a congratulatory message to Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Australia, on the Labor Party's victory for a second term in the Australian government elections.

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, and His Highness Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister, and Chairman of the Presidential Court, also sent similar messages to the Australian Prime Minister.

Albanese is the first Australian prime minister to win consecutive terms in two decades.

He said Australians had voted for fairness and “the strength to show courage in adversity and kindness to those in need.”

“Australians have chosen to face global challenges the Australian way, looking after each other while building for the future,” Albanese told supporters in a victory speech in Sydney.

“We do not need to beg or borrow or copy from anywhere else. We do not seek our inspiration overseas. We find it right here in our values and in our people,” he added.
