Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese apologized after describing advocate Grace Tame, a 2021 Australian of the Year and sexual abuse survivors' advocate, as "difficult" in response to a one-word question, with Tame suggesting he was echoing former PM Scott Morrison's characterization. In other news, former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has relocated to Australia, and 23 Australian children held in a Syrian camp with links to Islamic State attempted to return home but were forced to turn back.
