US Admirals arrive for AUSMIN

United States Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen is met by Chief of Defence Force Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston at Tullamarine Airport, Melbourne earlier today.

Admiral Mullen is visiting as part of the Australia-United States Ministerial Consultations, known as AUSMIN.

AUSMIN is the premier forum for strengthening the Australia-United States alliance and is a key opportunity to discuss perspectives and approaches on major global and regional issues and to deepen bilateral cooperation.

AUSMIN is held on a reciprocal basis every year and 2010 marks its 25th anniversary as well as 70 years of formal diplomatic relations between Australia and the United States.
