ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Well, it's great to be here in Germany. And tomorrow morning, we will have the signing of the deal to deliver over 100 Boxer armed carriers here to Germany. This will be one of our largest ever exports. It will guarantee that the one thousand jobs that are there in Queensland will go into the future and will be worth in excess of $1 billion for the Australian economy. This will boost our sovereignty. This will increase our defence capability and boost our economy. This is a great outcome. And it's the first outcome of quite a few that we have ready to announce tomorrow with our friends here in Germany. And I thank Chancellor Scholz for the very kind invitation to come here to commemorate these agreements that we will enter into tomorrow. Thanks very much.
