The US confirmed that Ms. Caroline Kennedy will be the new ambassador to Australia

Mrs. Kennedy, 64, is an author and attorney. Her father was the 35th president of the United States from 1961 until his assassination in 1963. Mrs. Kennedy served as the US Ambassador to Japan from 2013 to 2017 under former President Barack Obama.

The US Senate said Ms Kennedy’s visit to Canberra comes as Australia and the US strengthen ties to deal with China’s growing power and increasingly assertive behavior in Asia and around the world.

Ms. Kennedy succeeds Arthur Culvahouse, who stepped down as US Ambassador to Australia in early 2021, when former Republican President Donald Trump leaves office.
